    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

          Who is going to educate anyone when everyone pro-Palestinian is banned?

            Well Hasan isn't banned, which is WHY he shouldn't ban himself

        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?
