    I don’t see what people see in him tbh. He’s kinda meh as a political commentator for the celebrity status he has. It’s interesting how the left will circle the wagons around him like no other. But collargate did seem signal boosted.

      He’s accessible, I’m not into his content but I see the appeal. As for the parasociality many people have with him, it’s possible he was the beginning of their radicalization. I don’t know enough about Hasan to engage one way or another.

      The bar is really low. I mean, Joe Rogan is also an imbecile but he has the biggest podcast in the world

            I don’t think those first two are true, and the third applies to many, many people.

                I don’t think you’re telling the truth, or are misrepresenting it.
