    You’re more than welcome to get your bread as a Marxist leninist. Hassan is on a whole other level of exploitation. But again, you guys are in a cult. Now go cry to your little Twitch streamer boy. He might have some hot superficial rage bait today, is he on yet?

        Hassan is on a whole level of opulence and capitalism spending. From jewelry to designer brands to his Porsche to million dollar Beverly hills home… I mean… Who ISN’T he exploiting haha

            Way to intentionally - it has to be at this stage - miss the point I made. Owning things is not bad. There is owning to live and then there’s parading designer clothes and jewelry in front of destitute people in Havana while parading as a socialist. He’s Alex Jones. A little more clever, but in the end he’s just another Alex Jones. And you guys gobble it up.

                You’re right. How can Hassan live and get to work without the Porsche. It’s integral to his subsistence

                    It’s not a binary system. You don’t have to be poor to be a revolutionary agent for change. But you don’t need to do it in a Porsche either. You created this false binary and you’re trying to paint me in a corner with it because, in the end, you understand how stupid it is to defend a millionaire twitch streamer that cosplays as a socialist revolutionary. We’ve reached absurd levels of simulacrum where everything is a parody of itself. And here you are, gobbling it all up…but deep down, you know how silly this all is. Whatever you need to escape reality my dude

      I don’t watch him, I just think avoiding platforms owned by billionaires is impossible for everyone and it makes no sense to judge him for that

        That’s fair. But Hassan relishes in extreme opulence and luxury. The whole persona is a grift

      Socialism is not a poverty cult. I have issues with some of Hasan’s more liberal takes, but owning nice things is not a problem.

        Why do you guys keep bringing up this dichotomy? There’s owning nice things, and there’s indulging in disgusting levels of gluttony.

        It doesn’t matter either way. Hassan is a grifter. It’s Alex Jones of the left. Nothing substantial

          We bring it up because Hasan isn’t exploiting people for his wealth, and you’re misplacing your hatred. Capitalists are the problem, not Hasan, who generally takes an anti-imperialist, pro-socialist stance.
