This dude is basically indistinguishable from any reactionary conservative at this point.
Citations Needed did an episode about this. He basically is completely convinced that LA is a lawless hellscape and we need more cops and bigger prisons to fill with as many homeless peopleas possible. He is even in favor of sweeps of homeless encampments.
Adam Johnson wrote this article too if you're a reading-type.
TYT basically has a segment that is the same as "the knockout game" segment from Breitbart where they cherry-pick black on white assaults and say "See! They're coming for you and your family".
He believes that this lawlessness is caused by bail reform because we're allowing pre-trial release of these people without them having to post a cash bail (i.e. not denying them innocent until proven guilty because they're poor).
He doubled down on his positions during a Thanksgiving debate with his nephew Hasan Piker.
It's sad that this is how the largest "left wing" media outlet in the US is being run but ultimately unsurprising. The guy also does union-busting.
What do you expect? He has a net worth in the millions of dollars, according to some sources. The second anybody gets a whiff of wealth, they turn into a "Got mine, don't care about yours" kind of person. Also "Don't trust the liberals, they will betray you."
How long until Hasan turns?
:hasan-smash: not the himbo, he would never :rage-cry:

when that day comes we will have to hide our boy JT
He’ll be the first one blackbagged tbh
hopefully he will get out to his wife's home country with his family if he gets a whiff.
at least he knows what the feds are like up close
I don't think he's going to turn rightward since he's mostly independently generated all of his wealth. There's definitely a level where he will stop moving toward "radical left" positions that would threaten that, probably at the line of openly calling for a revolution (outside of an edgy joke). That's not really his place anyway so whatever.
We'll see if this ages like milk in the next 5 years when he goes full chud for some reason
He doesn’t call for revolution even now. He doesn’t think a revolution is possible in the West.
He’s right. The only way communism can be established globally is through a war, one that makes the terror preceding it look justified.
A Sacred War :stalin-pipe:
No I know, and he's always going to hold short of that
