    There is clearly a market for leftist-dialogue related content. That being said, I don't really know what it's relationship is with a growth in socialist activism.

        That's fair. I guess I just worry about the method of conversion because I remember the new atheist movement and how people who were 'converted' through youtube (streams were not really a thing at the time) were generally the most toxic to gaining more support.

            There was that one debate between Hasan and Charlie Kirk and I didn't watch the actual debate because I'm not an idiot but I watched the beginning

            Charlie Kirk looked like such a fucking dork next to our himbo, and it was hilarious when during the introduction Hasan clearly got a lot more female cheers compared to Charlie's audience of pol faces.

            Fair point. But listen, I have an alternative for the 'ashamed to be a gamer' that doesn't involve streamers. It's called semi-ironic self-loathing. I hear it's all the rage with kids these days.

        Probably educate, but see if we can get people on the ground on his show.

      I mean the growth of right wing media on the radio and cable TV clearly helped contribute to things like the Boogaloo boys and QAnon. I'm optimistic that in a decade or too Hasan and company will bring over a lot of new people.
