This media cycle has been the most insane thing to witness.
Hasan just said that conflating Judaism with Zionism and tying American Jews to Israel is dangerous- which is bad and why we must work against it.
And they turned that into him encouraging violence against Jews???
complete inversion of reality
i am a very accessible media figure. it is strange that i am blacklisted from most of these news outlets who will talk about me endlessly. it’s perhaps easier to present a negative frame rather than address me directly and have your audience recognize that i’m fairly agreeable
@afbranco I thought the USA is the greatest democracy on earth? If people elect DSA members then its the peoples will. Politicians normally work for the people you know, not the other way around.
Hasan Piker: not all Jews are Zionists, & all Jews are not responsible for Israel’s genocide. Israel/Zionism does not represent Judaism
Zionists: WHOA NOW! Israel & Zionism represents ALL JEWS. Israel’s genocide? YUP! THATS BEING DONE BY THE COUNTRY WE SAY REPRESENTS ALL JEWS!
@Leahgreenb Seriously, American politics is some of the dumbest shit I ever seen. Democrats are on the verge of winning big. Hasan helped to elect some candidates. What are democrats doing? They fight Hasan instead of corrupt republicans.
Here's a 30-minute compilation of Hasan calling out anti-semitism and how criticism of Israel shouldn’t be conflated with Jewish people.
Next time someone accuses him of being antisemitic based on 20 sec clips, you can just show this instead of trying to argue further.
Not ONE THING you can tell me that @hasanthehun has said in his entire life is worse, or even in the ballpark, of people actually supporting a real genocide.
Voting for it is worse than anything he’s said his whole life.
Funding it is worse than anything he’s ever said.

What Hasan says about how the claim and perception that all Jews support Israel will contribute to antisemitism and cause blowback is an undeniable truth. What would make his statement problematic would be saying that all Jews deserve blowback. He’s not saying that. Anyone who genuinely cared about Jewish safety would recognize that since the majority of the world oppose the war crimes Israel is committing, the more Jews speak out against Israel, the safer we will be. It’s of course a moral issue to speak out. But ironically the Jews who get called self-loathing are making the world safer for Jews. The Zionists are making it more dangerous.
Worth keeping in mind how this started: a pro-Israel Democrat publicly refused to support El Sayed (i.e. let the Republican win). You don't want people talking about that, so centrist Dems have smartly turned it into another Piker news cycle (that conveniently also hurts AES).
@ZioNAFOist@haaretzcom@hasanthehun@Etanetan23 Nope, i just knew what you meant bc this is another lie people like you like to tell. Two things:
1. What kind of asshole are you to wish my family harm?
2. You are stupid as fuck. A sheep with an IQ of 40 who believes everything
Hasan Piker isn’t a liability for democratic candidates. These daily condemnations are their attempt to make him a liability. To repeat it enough until it becomes conventional political wisdom. That’s how propaganda works. Repeat until it becomes reality in the mind.
@haaretzcom Isral should be banned from the contest.
1. They are committing genoide.
2. They are not even in Europe and they also pretend not to be from Europe.
Kick them out!
