Ethan is politically illiterate so he thought he and hasan shared politics, so he invited him to co-host a show on his multi-million subscriber channel. They mostly dunked on conservatives but it was always tense when the subject of real left politics came up (china, socialism, anti-imperialism)
After oct 7 ethan has just been regurgitating liberal zionist talking points, and a few months ago he made a huge video criticism hasan's anti-zionism, hasan ignored him for the most part and ever since ethan has been on a crusade to EXPLICITLY get him, his friends and anyone with radical leftist politics deplatformed off twitch.
Which is a big part of why this anti-hasan thing is catching steam, ethan is a prominent liberal jewish youtuber with a show that nets 500-800k views an episode, and he's leveraged his own and destiny's communities to, as he puts it, "hold hasan accountable"

Ok, so, to break it down for you, as simply as possible, the people in this thread are trying to tell you that without Ethan Klein doing his best to deplatform Hasan, people at Fox News probably wouldn't know who Hasan is, or, at the very least, they wouldn't have written an article also trying to deplatform him.
Now, whether that analysis is right or not, I have no idea. I don't watch Hasan, I don't know anything about Ethan Klein, so yeah, no clue. But I think the claim is pretty straightforward, and it is as follows: without Ethan Klein trying to deplatform Hasan, Fox News wouldn't have written this article. And the truth or falsity of that claim has nothing to do with whether Ethan Klein or his supporters are mentioned in the article itself.
Here's how it's relevant CW: a lot of racism in this compilation of ethan being a massive piece of shit

Waow, no way, the right wing propaganda outlet doing cover for a justifiably criticized right wing media personality by demanding that his critics be silenced has failed to provide the full context? Say it isn't so!
What's your fucking point?
It's been a bizzare turn to see the libs uncritically accept everything fucking Fox News says as fact. They really just don't like it because they are told not to like it, that's all it is. Has nothing to do with bias or media literacy, and solely because it is the "bad guy" news, but they'll ignore that when it suits them.
