This point about Hasan Piker is exactly right. This joint Dem/GOP/media campaign to vilify and destroy Hasan Piker (including with outright lies) isn't about him as a person.

He's just their most convenient vehicle at the moment to re-establish the long-standing bipartisan rule that going too far with criticisms of the US/Israel relationship (or being too successful with criticisms/activism against Israel) guarantees mainstream personal destruction by being widely branded a bigot, racist and anti-Semite over and over.

(Establishment Dems are most enthusiastic in these Hasan attacks because they have a separate motive: fear that they are losing control of their party to this insurgent anti-Israel and left-populist faction whom Hasan symbolizes, so destroying Hasan (and guaranteeing El-Sayed's loss for good measure) is an added bonus for them: similar to how the UK Labour Party preferred to lose to Boris Johnson in 2019 than win with Jeremy Corbyn, and Blairite Labour factions actually worked to help defeat their own leader).

I've had and voiced countless criticisms of Hasan over the years and he's done the same to me. They don't matter at all because, as @lliveandalive astutely notes here, none of this is really about Hasan himself but about re-equating Israel opposition with anti-Semitism. They've done it to countless other people before him (just look at Thomas Massie). Defending Hasan from the lies being told about him isn't about defending Hasan the person (although where lies are involved, such as the false claims about his most recent comments, he should be defended), but far more important are the broader policy issues at stake.

Even if you dislike Hasan Piker, I dont know how liberals &leftists are oblivious that it’s bigger than @hasanthehun. He’s their warning that if you step out of line on party politics on Israel (though Americans agree in polls) they will coordinate attacks. This should alarm you.

@TheBozoReport @NFL_DovKleiman Dude in the video had the same idea. Those are definitely all DHGate jerseys. As someone who’s bought enough fake ones to know, the high standing collars are always a dead giveaway. Def the right move for this punishment tho

@SaquonSavedMe @D0WNSHOF @relkentm We all agree the cowboys defense fucking sucked last year…

@EdLawDude Local news officially says no. @JohnMaloneHS also has a short but interesting thread from someone seemingly inside the court room

@TopHater67 @Georgiewthdwns @chaser8900 @RatioedSports But the moment you decline to do the field breath test, like Tony, you’re getting arrested

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@TopHater67 @Georgiewthdwns @chaser8900 @RatioedSports Not necessarily. My buddy just about a month ago had a beer before leaving and got pulled over around 2 am. Cops claimed he smelled like alcohol and had him do the field test twice. Then told him he failed and asked for breathalyzer. He passed easily & they sent him on his way

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 Which logical argument supports Christianity that hasn’t been refuted? The ontological, deontological, and intelligent design have all been successfully refuted. That’s the facts

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 If you think I’m worse than the Christians who mass coverup sexual abuse, kill others in the name of Christ, and forced their religion upon millions of indigenous, then there’s no changing your viewpoint and engaging in debate is not worthwhile

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 I don’t know better than everyone else. I know better than hateful Christians. You keep equating rhetoric to actions. My rhetoric will never equal ur religion’s constant evil actions. You haven’t engaged w/ my argument. You just keep repeating your unjustified equivalence

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 back and forth jabs as the problem and not the sickening pain inflicted through your religion shows your willful ignorance in place of acceptance/addressing the problems within your community. So far, the only thing I have to answer for is angry messaging. We are not the same

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 I can have a holier than thou attitude for the reasons explained above. Until you can show me the atheist equivalence of suffering, your false equivalence is moot. Anyone should be able to believe what they want as long as they don’t harm others in their acts. Characterizing (1/2

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 worldwide sexual abuse and widespread coverup. We’re angry bcuz we’re forced to respect ur beliefs that have led to all the above thanks to a fairy tale as truthful as a Homer tale. Praise the almighty bearded man in the sky. Abrahamic irrationality defines much of my life in USA

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 My beliefs weren’t spread by the forced indoctrination and slaughter of millions. My beliefs don’t demonize and threaten eternal suffering of those who are born differently. My beliefs aren’t the cause of war after and war and they certainly aren’t the driving force behind (1/2)

[Bert Skaggs @JohnnySkaggs9]

@McEscherBrot @blockchainist21 @xvise66 @j9hoImes @poopswag34 All that just to say you’re retarded
