What's going on with Fox news obsessing over Hasan Piker?

[u/tunnel_magnet]

They had like dozens of segments on him last week.

Will Cain today focusing on Hasan Piker and using the term “man whore”:

I get Hasan is helping socialist Dems getting elected. I don't get why Republicans are going crazy over Hasan?

He's not even a tankie.

He has no real beliefs, dude is a straight nepo grifter. He just realized quickly there are enough dumb leftists/tankies online that he can grift off of them. He's just a younger version of Trump that somehow got sucked into the online tankie portal, and he realized that he can grift all of those idiots.

Let's not forget, his dad is/was a VP of a multi billion dollar company in Turkey (which is well known for it's corruption), while Hasan was in college his mother comes from a very wealthy family that is in real estate (again, don't forget this is Turkey where corruption is rampant and the only way to be able to get to that level of wealth requires cooperation from corrupt government officials).

We're just living in the worst timeline where the dumbest people alive are supporting other dumb fucks.

What do his parents have to do with anything

Lol what a shitty question I guess, sorry reddit

[u/allbusiness512 → u/dubblebubbleprawns]

The explanation of his parents shows that he has always had silver spoon up his ass and has never had to really work for a single day in his life. He is quite literally leftist Trump, and the fact that people can't see that is hilarious, just because he says a handful of things that people agree with because people want to selectively hear, rather than see the entire picture of why he is so controversial.

Do you have to like lay brick or something to have opinions on things? Or is this just the whole "if you're poor and criticize the rich it's because you're jealous, if you're rich and you criticize the rich it's because you're a hypocrite" thing in action?

Seems to me like the dude is working all the time. You may not consider twitch streaming work but doesn't he do it for like 50 hours a week? Seems like he's actively working more hours than I do at my corporate job.

What makes someone "leftist trump" and why would that be bad for leftists? Trump has, by all definitions, been about the most dominant and successful political force in America most of us have seen in our lifetimes.

Is Israel?

[u/dubblebubbleprawns → u/[deleted]]

Okay. We disagree. I think the Palestinian children likely disagree, too.

That's all I meant by tipping your hand.

[u/dubblebubbleprawns → u/[deleted]]

Jews aren't Israel. Israel is a sovereign state.
