Pretty good profile that takes him seriously, although it doesn’t touch on anticapitalism at all besides a vague reference to “critiqu[ing] […] the billionare class”. Also glad that they didn’t spend too much time fawning over how hot he is, since that can get old.
edit: oh yeah, this is part of the exchange that led up to the title quote:
When our waiter arrives, Piker turns to the 20-something hipster. “Can I ask you a question? Who is the most likely person that killed Charlie Kirk?” he asks. “I think it was Israel. It seems like an inside job,” the server replies hesitantly before heading back to the kitchen for Piker’s cold brew.
The answer comes as a shock to me. But it’s no surprise to the extremely online millennial who acknowledges that he is fascinated by conspiracy theories.
: “Elevated position. Telescopic sight. High-caliber. Anyone could do it.”
: “He had a lot of enemies, and his enemies are all armed. Most likely a groyper.”
: “Israel did it. Inside job, For sure.”
I heard he farted on his dog
Thank you for reading the article before commenting
Oooh im gonna reeeaaaddddd. Im readmaxxing. Im a readmaxxing gigachad.
Read the article before commenting pls, you’re going to look like a fool if you just react to the headline.
This isn’t even running defense for Hasan, I just know someone is gonna text to the headline that definitely wasn’t written with Hexbear in mind. That’s the whole point of me posting the article anyway, it’s interesting to see how American (popular culture) media is shifting in it’s depiction of prominent left wing figures.
I normally just add some text from the article to the post so people read a little and have a more complete view of it
Its interesting how some of the media is slowly talking about him in a non negative way, probably because he is too popular to ignore now
I think it also helps that he’s been on “fuck Israel” for his whole career while also denouncing antisemitism, and the political commentariat has been struggling to adjust to the popular opinion shifting even in America to “fuck Israel,” made worse by how Neo-Nazis have been abusing this institutional “blindspot” (refusal to stop backing an apartheid state) to have a massive platform.
Good point
That’s a nice coat
