Picking a fight with Hasan Piker while midterms are gearing up is the dumbest fucking idea. The consultant class really is a problem when it comes to meaningful change. (TikTok screencap)

The candidate is Abdul El-Sayed who is running for Senate in Michigan. Don’t know where you’re getting that Hasan never mentions him, they had a whole interview and Hasan has spoken about him frequently since then.
Hasan has a large platform that he lends to candidates to give them a boost. I guarantee you more people knew of Hasan Piker than Abdul El-Sayed before his interview. This idea that Hasan is just clout-chasing makes no sense. I don’t align 100% with his worldview but this whole thing is clearly just a smear campaign organised by Third Way because of Hasan’s advocacy for Palestine, opposition to the blockade on Cuba, and his efforts to get progressives elected in Democratic primaries.
