I appreciate this thread for reminding me why people generally fucking hate Democrats as a party. Y’all cannot stand your base. You have no principled policy stances other than blind devotion to Israel and capitalism, and would rather lose to the fascists than cater to popular opinions (aka being “democratic”). Your refusal to be an opposition party is why trump is where he is doing what he is doing.
Oh boy, it’s that time again where Democrats go “Why don’t we have an X to counter the right-wing Y” as they snuff out X.
He’s a douchey nepo baby who comes off as an insufferable jackass… Seriously, his mom made him intern at his uncle’s company (The Young Turks) and when his uncle needed someone to fill in, he picked his nephew.
Who immediately quit the internship and became a fulltime streamer.
He is a lot like the far right streamers that neoliberals want.
But he’s not what the vast majority of the Dem voting base wants.
And it has absolutely nothing to do with any policy position he may or may not have. Because he didn’t get into this for politics, he wants the attention of being a streamer and he saw an opening.
He’s not a political activist who streams, he’s a streamer that will say anything to get famous, and we don’t need people like that attached to the party.
He wants to sit on twitch 8 hrs a day and say vote D? Awesome, more power to him.
But he’s clearly saying whatever gets him attention, and shit is too important to legitimize him when that’s all he cares about
Did he endorse Democrats in the 2020 election? He was kicked out of the Democrat convention because he was anti Israel.

Im not sure if you’re confusing a whole bunch of things together and not understanding any of them…
Or if the twitch brainrot is making you talk about 5 different things in two sentences.
Can you try that comment again if you need help understanding something?
I’m so glad that I immediately go for the “Do Not Recommend Channel” whenever I see him on YouTube. I genuinely think it’s made a positive difference in my blood pressure / stress levels.
It’s just like everyone looked at alt-right young Nazi streamers, and learned all the wrong lessons…
Literally:
The show’s name Young Turks has been criticized and called for change[35] due to the original Young Turks political movement in the Ottoman Empire being responsible for committing the Armenian genocide, the Assyrian genocide, and the Greek genocide.[37][36] Alex Galitsky, who works for the Armenian National Committee of America, stated “If a group decided to call themselves ‘the Young Nazis’, and pitched themselves as a disruptor or anti-establishment news outlet, people would be rightly outraged”.[37]

That’s his uncle that mentored him… Those are the people who shaped his political opinions
There’s plenty of actual progressive streamers, hell, Kat has an open schedule, and people actually like her.
The only people who like Hasan, are people who want to piss off people who disagree with them.
If we’re gonna piss of Nazis, there’s better ways to do it than hanging out with different flavors of bigots and genocide enthusiasts.
