      They sure treat him like he is.

      I don’t have much if an opinion on the guy but I’m starting to like the fact that they hate him so much. He must be doing something right.

      I wish Hasan had a goal of stopping fascism in the 2024 election. I’ll advocate voting for anyone who will resist the fascists in power, but I won’t pretend I’m not worried about the pendulum swinging past me and into another flavor of culty authoritarianism.

        I mean he voted for kamala, he never told anyone to not vote, what else do you want? His endorsement would go nowhere just like his advice to pivot the left went nowhere.

        You’re mad that he didn’t endorse Harris. Acting like anyone who doesn’t endorse the frontrunner candidate supports the opposition is no different from MAGA’s ridiculous loyalty tests.

    Moderates don’t exist. In reality they are the pro-corporate party. They can stick a D or R by their names, and then you look at policies and ask what benefits billionaires, and that’s how they vote. Always.

    Moderates’ only goal is the extinction of the Palestinian people.

    This is just part of that.

      Calling anyone who disagrees with you in any way pro genocide feels just like the fascists in power calling anyone who disagrees with them corrupt pedophiles. You can’t do that then act like them not liking you is proof you’re right.

        Calling anyone who disagrees with you in any way pro genocide

        If I had ever seen centrists fight for anything else, I would say so.

        You can’t do that then act like them not liking you is proof you’re right.

        Their actions are all the proof I need. When they start making excuses for not selling weapons for genocide like they make excuses for not doing the things they actually campaign on, I’ll believe they have another policy. Until then, why should I trust people who only fight for genocide and only fight against the left?

          Klandace Owens is a good example. Her beliefs are almost unilaterally batshit, but she doesn’t support genociding Palestinians. Tucker Carlson as well. Stopped clocks and whatnot.

    2024 was the easiest election in history but americans squandered it.

    Letting terrorist supporting freaks like Hasan in is the republicans’ wet dream. You don’t have to let the worst freaks in just because they are left/socialist and popular. You can be left and not be like Hasan.

    I already don’t forgive americans for squandering 2024 so there isn’t much more to say than I hope you don’t squander 2026 and 2028.

          So you are ok with that person calling Hassan a terrorist supporter but you have a problem with me using the same word. Someone who reject palestinians right to attack the genocidal army who is trying to exterminate them is a terrorist supporter.

      You don’t have to force genocidal garbage on us every time either, but centrists love nothing in this world but murdering Palestinians, and they’re happy to lose to fascists as long as they get their genocide.

        Centrists got their preferred candidate as soon as there was no anti-genocide candidate from either major party. You won when you cheated Americans out of another primary. I’d say to enjoy trump, but he’s supportinmg genocide so you’re way ahead of me on that.

        You have to understand that the best way to stop genocide is to reject Palestinians’ right to resist and beg Israel to stop the extermination, while at the same time giving them weapons to commit genocide.

    I’ve heard of him taking the Russian view of reality at least a few times, so I think the centrists might have a point. What’s his view on if and how we should support Ukraine?

        You’re gonna need to work on your English and be a little more coherent in general before I take your thoughts on American politics seriously.

        I am not friends with the centrists. I just know that if the progressive movement buys too much pro-Russia propaganda, we’re just going to end up in the same place Trump is taking us by a different road. Half the party is already taking money from Israel and that’s already bad. If the other half starts following Russia’s influence, it will end up the same as the Republicans.

          When the genocide wing can’t defend its only policy, it gets condescending and abusive.

          And since their only policy is indefensible and monstrous, they are always condescending and abusive.

    It’s more like he’s the figurehead that all the tankies will defend no matter what. Kinda like MAGA with Trump expect Hasan isn’t a politician. MAGA and moderate Republicans (if there are any left at this point) wants to make it look like the entire left is Hasan Piker, and thus moderates disavowed him before they are harassed with all the indefensible things he has said and done over the years like some DSA candidates are dealing with now for biting this bullet

      I see the centrist wing has found its most recent Jeremiah Wright.

      Remember in 2024 when the mere suggestion that centrists’ beloved-above-all-else genocide wasn’t the best thing ever was helping trump?

      Funny how the genocide wing’s constant demonization of everyone to their left somehow isn’t helping trump.

      I guess it only counts if you actually disagree with trump, and no centrist ever will.
