    Get back to me when Hasan accomplishes something. Anything.

    As much of a vile person Kirk was, at least he knew how to mobilize people and be politically effective.

    Don’t act like Hasan is some supreme bastion of intellectual acumen. He spends 99% of his stream reading Twitter headlines. Don’t take my word for it. Go watch it for yourself

      He has one of the largest platforms of any left wing creator, and uses it to parse through misinformation in traditional media, and also regularly hosts fundraisers that raise millions of dollars for charity.

      OMG, such a bad dude.

        The guy is a source of constant misinformation. He said “Russia has a right to invade Ukraine because they speak the same language”. What?? Why does anyone pay attention to him?

        Oh man. You guys are so weird. You understand the difference between admiring someone and recognizing that they are effective at achieving their goals. You understand the difference, right? Are you capable of having two thoughts simultaneously in your brain?

            Yea, you should try to understand why some political figures are more effective over others. Do you not care about achieving anything? What are we doing all this for, man? I don’t understand this point of criticism
