Fucking purity testing bullshit, fully functional and operational at the highest levels. The left will purity test itself into extinction if it doesn't realize it's happening.
Precisely. The right will vote for anyone no matter how terrible they are and we’re busy self defeating.

Hasan Derangement Syndrome. It's not just the consultant class that's to blame, the DNC is just as infested by corporate interest and PACs as the Republicans. The average Democrat rep's platform does not align with the average Democratic voter's priorities. Hasn't for a long time.
Hasan continues to be an effective litmus test.
Like, if in 2026 you're responding to the call to actively take time and energy out to hate on Hasan, you're squarely an anti-leftist.
People talked about his dog for longer than we talked about the 100+ children the US slaughtered a few weeks ago
Yeah, I've thought Hasan was a tankie for a while, but joining the shithead neo feudalists in dogpiling him is a terrible idea. Those fuckers are controlled opposition for the fascist oligarchs, and when it comes to fighting fascists you cannot be picky in your allies.

I don't like Hasan Piker and I think he was actively damaging in 2024 (not that he swinged the election, but he sure didn't help). However, shouldn't we be trying to build bridges right now since the left has been bulkanized so hard? The right can unify against the left but apparently the left can't do the same...
The democrats aren't the left. And for God's sake you can't build bridges with people who want to kill or enslave entire demographics.

He is trying to build bridges. But the establishment Democrats are terrified of more Zohrans popping up in the Democratic Party.
Upon reflection, I don't know if that's true. He certainly was the one burning the bridges during the 2024 election. Which is why I'm still conflicted and unconfident in this opinion. I'm just scared that we're allowing the far right to win by fighting amongst ourselves. If the right sweep these midterms like they did the 2024 election, then it's just over for America...

I will keep repeating this until the day I die: the democratic political machine cannot function as it exists today without it's not-so-clandestine marriage with capital.
Piker being a massively-popular mobilizer of young voters does nothing to endear him to a party who's entire political infrastructure is directly at odds with his political views on capital, labor, and anti-imperialist geopolitics.
The DNC will sooner drown in it's own piss, shit, and vomit than adopt or promote a political commentator that seeks to rip the party away from its funding apparatus by holding them accountable to their increasingly socialist voting base.
Why does anyone care what YouTube people say or think in the first place.

I'm going to guess, and I may be wrong, that a lot of people who would vote for the US Dems have no idea who he is. I didn't until the last year, though I've lived outside of the US for a decade now
He's hugely popular with people under 30 as far as politics goes. He is turning on an entire generation towards politics while also acting as an alternative to Nick Fuentes and Andrew Tate.
So you can imagine the kind of threat he poses.

I follow politics closely, and I've NEVER heard of this guy.
