    I'm dumb here what does being a John mean? And how has he exploited women? Not being argumentative just not a thing knower.

      John is a common slang word for a sex worker's client.

      I've not heard anything about this, but if true it's major :kombucha-disgust:

          which tbh I would be fine with if he frame it as "I did a bad thing when I was younger and as a Marxist I can look back and say that I was sexually exploiting woman in a vulnerable condition" and not "actually sex work is super cool and being a cumsumer is awesome"

      "John" is a term that's used to describe someone who has consumed full service sex work (paid a prostitute for sex)

        Oh yeah I did know he visited a brothel once and have mixed opinions about that but I defer to women ideally sex workers themselves. Hasan is borderline misogynistic sometimes but seems mostly like a good hearted but kinda dumb guy and I think his impact is broadly positive.
