hasan piker (guy on the right) does not represent the left and is not worthy of your attention.
he is actively making abdul el-sayed’s chances at election worse and i am frustrated about it given the stakes so i made this meme.
because like. my absolute BESTIE abdul el-sayed is out here working miracles at home trying to keep poc, migrant, low-income, queer, etc. people alive and doing the actual work of building a coalition, including making real inroads with his Jewish constituency, while being explicitly pro-Palestinian and rejecting AIPAC money.
hasan piker has made a handful of appearances with both abdul and zohran, but now abdul is getting viciously smeared for hasan’s own words, with fox news literally turning things hasan said into attack-ad material against him. and hasan just will not read the room and step back.
this is the same BOZO hasan piker who wears mao outfits, plays literal terrorist propaganda videos for his friends and goes “they’re just very musical people,” denies the Uyghur genocide, supports the invasion of Tibet, lies about queer rights in China while going on tours, and has said enough insane shit that even my OTHER bestie zohran mamdani disavowed him months ago. and the room is STILL unread and some people are trying to tell me i have to fall on the sword for piker.
do i have to beg ;;;;;;
i just want candidates who aren’t evil to win :’(
Nobody goes on peertube. I have no idea about his policies but leaving mainstream sites would be a political suicide.
His policies, what I’m lead to believe, is that hes a socialist.
Why wouldnt he be able to dual stream and move his viewers over? Have exclusive other platform only streams until enough people have moved over to stop supporting a fascist?
That is, unless he really doesnt give a shit, because hes a socialist in name only, and doesnt care that he is directly supporting Jeff Bezos by using his platform.
People dont leave abusive platforms unless their favorite creators move with them.
as I’ve said in a different comment:
Yes, he can dual stream if he wants to and should.
Addition after like 2 minutes after posting: I’ve noticed the one who responded was an original comment. My assumption of what you’ve said was then incorrect. In that case only thing I want to mention is that most leftists are still normal people who don’t spend their time boycotting every evil company. Should they? Yes. If we were to count only the most radical boycotters as leftists then our movement would shrink to less than Desktop Linux % presence.
So why is Trump using Mastodon…?
Because he got banned from Twitter before Musk has bought it. The original comment condemns Hasan for using Twitch, which I am assuming was intended as bad for using at all. Your example is somebody who uses multiple platforms, which hasn’t cut off the part of his base that refuses to follow him to Truthsocial. It also has an advantage of moving his most loyal cultists to a different platform, where he can feed them propaganda without having to worry as much about scaring off potential moderate republicans. Oh and the chicken and an egg problem. Trump solved it by buying chickens and other power given to him by an insane amount of capital.
Reposting on here in the minute chance mastodon takes off when twitter fails? Or just gets popular for some unknown reason. All they do is copy paste his whitehouse, and truth media shit everywhere.
