    Two weeks out from the election it would be a terrible strategy to intentionally deplatform the largest leftist pipeline on the internet, especially considering the potential to radicalize scores of disillusioned liberals

    If would also give Ethan and destiny exactly what they want, which is to silence all pro-Palestinian voices

    Hasan's strategy of largely ignoring Ethan and using the drama as launching pad to educate on the crimes of Israeli apartheid is driving Klein up the wall, the man is spiraling

    Replacing that with an online hunger strike just isn't efficient or likely to be effective in any way

      lol Hasan with Hezbollah strategy of not responding to provocations and keeping cool at all times.

      Two weeks out from the election

      I'm starting to realize how much money and viewership Frogan, Vio, Denims, and Capri are about to lose out on from their month-long bans

      I never said anything about Hasan going dark. I said not streaming on Twitch. He can stream in TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube.

        nah, he should simply stream Bisan's documentary and any other available Gazan-filmed footage 24/7 without physically being online or saying a word

        Hasan won't be getting 70k-200k views on election day streaming on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube

        Twitch is his platform, you can't just transfer an entire audience to other platforms overnight, it takes years to build up, having the platform is simply more important than making a well-meaning moral gesture that'll be forgotten in a month

          Why exactly is covering electoralism more important than solidarity with pro-Palestinian voices being silenced by Twitch over racist lies?

            Because educating and agitproping a shit ton of disillusioned liberals on Palestine who are tuning in for the election is more important than online brownie points

            You're just projecting that these people, who he actually knows and talks to, want him to go offline, and that he's refusing them.

              Listen, just say you want your slop. I'm sure they want to be unbanned, too. Should anyone try to do anything about that, or should we just do whatever allows you to tune into Hasan on Twitch still?

                I think you're naive if you think Hasan not broadcasting would commute their ban in any way.

                  Just say you care more about your slop. Is that so hard?
