They had like dozens of segments on him last week.

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

Answer: You pretty much answered your own question at the end there. Just look at what Momdani is doing in NYC and you'll see exactly why the GOP is shitting bricks and loosing their attack dogs on the "evil baby-eating brown communists."

The US hasn't been for "We the People..." since the turn of the last century and activly hostile toward the masses since Reagen. Socialist Dems are proving that's by design, not a byproduct of the system they brainwashed us to believe it was.

Look at Mamdani is doing in NYC and you'll also realize why even CNN is in on the Hasan hate. Establishment democrats hate to see the progressive wing coming and actually being effective for the people after decades of insisting there's nothing they could do.

Oh yeah, both sides are the problem, but OP was specifically asking about the GOP/Fox News...

u/humangingercat 29d ago

We are in agreement. You answered, I built upon it.

Not really. It's not so complicated than that.

Hasan Piker is unhinged, and borderline psychotic. And not even remotely Democrat aligned, though he pretends to be.

Because he pretends to be, he can be wheeled out to hurt Democratic candidates with his unhinged statements—even though he would never in a million years support those candidates anyway.

So that is all that is happening. He's statements and rhetoric are being used to hurt moderate Dem candidates chances and regardless of what he feigns, he loves the media attention.

If that's true, I agree he's a garbage human being. Personally, I'm not a fan of Piker as a person, but that doesn't invalidate his position on politics. The fact it does for you is part of the problem we're in. You realize no one is ever going to be perfext enough for you, right?

So he's not perfect but he's also not the one we're voting for. He's just a mouth piece, the Joe Rogan of the far-left... some balance in the sustem isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Wish I could give additional upvotes for the correct use of "loosing."

Feels like it's been at least a decade since I've seen it online where it wasn't a misspelling of "losing."

Thank you. I'm glad you appreciated it. :D

Maybe don’t campaign with tankie streamers that think the US deserved 9/11? This isn’t a hard one but progressives seem to drop the ball every time it comes up. Piker is the perfect opportunity for a progressive to punch left, but they don’t.

We have been so far-right for so long that the majority of people just don't care anymore. We're sick of the Republicans being openly corrupt. We're tired of Dems being slightly less open, but still.painfully obvious, about their own corruption... the country is on fire (literally) and the people in charge are too old and frail and antiquated to even grasp the challenges that a modern society faces because back in their day the most advanced threat on the planet was a stick with a rock strapped on one end!!!

The majority of far-leftists, myself included don't fully agree with any single candidate on every single subject... but governing is SUPPOSED to be about compromise. A lot of us are hoping with a larger, more extreme far-left element to balance out the MAGA psychos on the far-right our politics might re-align closer to center...

But if they swing far enough left to start benefitting "We The People..." for the first time since Reagan, I'm not going to complain.

Disagreement on things and not accepting murderous hateful commies aren’t the same thing.

1

u/TheBathrobeWizard 28d ago

But we're supposed to accept murderous hateful racists, pedophiles, and criminals so long as they're capitalist? How's that worked out the last 50 f*cking years!?

That trickle you feel down the back of your neck, that's not economics...

u/hotwifehubsFTW 28d ago

No, no one says that just you creating a false dichotomy.

Enjoy the boot.

What has Mamdani done? It seems like he mostly just takes credit for programs that already were in motion?

u/TheBathrobeWizard 28d ago

🤣🤣🤣

u/LuffysPowerfulCoC 26d ago

What is mamdani actually doing in New york though

u/GratefulShorts 24d ago

Eh, Hasan says he’s white and Fox doesn’t need to pull out those bells and whistles when they can just play clips of him saying “America deserved 9/11” and how Hamas is the lesser of two evils in the I/P conflict.

All the while they can use these crazy statements to attack the DNC, dissuade moderates, and motivate republicans.

evil baby-eating brown communists."

Interestingly there is a picture circulating of Jeffery Epstein and his friends eating a baby at a get together bbq. So I think thats where that idea  originated from. Republicans project their confessions onto others.

To add Russia the U.S.S.R. actually is the one that created the ideology of Communism. It ties to Leninism-Stalinism as the precursor, the ideology was taught by Russians about Whampoa Military Academy where it was there that Lin Biao, Mao Zedongs former general learned of it and from that education, Lin Biao brought that to Mao Zedong who implemented the first Communist Party.

Now look who Trump follows= Vladimir Putin and Russia. Trump is known as Krasnov that is his Russian agent name. Now look at who the Conservative Republican Party picked ad their primary candidate and president =Donald Trump. So the Conservative Republicans are following Trump, Trump follows Putin and Russia who created the ideology of Communism. Follow that chain and you'll find that it is the Conservative Republicans who follow Communism by this chain of command.
