Im being serious. The left needs to embrace a “do as I say not as I do” attitude towards our leaders, with great power comes a large amount of treats and who are we to judge Hasan for not living up to the ideals that he sets out for us. In fact I think its good that he doesnt do what he says, it means you are willing to follow him, when he does not care about you, it shows one true ideological devotion to the cause. Please give your eyes and your capital to Hasan, he needs it more than you, and do not have original ideas or question him at all. Free thinkers will get banned in the twitch chat. And please, do not drink the Coca Cola even if dear leader is doing it. Inshallah Hasan is divine in nature!

    I honestly can’t tell if this is serious or dripping in like 4 layers of irony and sarcasm and whatever, but in any case, let’s all just go touch grass today. Just go sit outside for like 30 minutes with no phone.

        People characterize his viewers like that on twitter and certain other communities. I didn’t want to toss accusations out, so, just saying to touch grass. The healer of all terminal online illnesses

    Post: Hasan drank coke products, which he’s previously promoted a boycott of. Here’s a clip of him promoting the boycott. Here’s a clip of him drinking coke.

    Wow thanks OP that was so informative I appreciate you shedding light on this definitely very important issue with linked receipts. Very good and normal response that makes me believe you.

    The treat discussion becomes very lively when it’s about petty slop like anime, but once veganism is on the table we’re suddenly all in the same struggle and all learning together, and really, who cares about what treats someone enjoys anyway.

    It’s really not a good thing that I’m beginning to recognize your username on sight for having the most annoying takes. Some like this are kinda funny, but you have also been sincerely advocating for plenty of harmful shit (like when you claimed innocent workers on the Baltimore bridge collapse deserved to die) as well. I encourage you to either take your, well, takes to c/badposting or stop wrecking, honestly.

      This has echoes of some past struggle sessions here, where people get really attached to their parasocial youtubers and streamers and defend their shitty actions, but I can’t tell if this is a wrecker post trying to start a big argument, or if they’re just passive-aggressively venting about someone else’s actions instead of being upfront with them. Or if they are just trying to make people laugh with a bit. I’m just confused.

        i think it’s even more online, which is that this person emphatically does NOT like Hasan, but sees their ‘identity’ as an online leftist being linked to him cos of other leftists watching him, and now has the need to run to the internet to rub it in everyone’s face that ‘their’ person did something wrong, and therefore you are being a ‘bad’ leftists by liking Hasan, meaning I can discount you as being a part of the thing I identify with and leaving me as the true leftist

        it’s extremely online, especially with trying to turn it around into this smug, sarcastic rhetorical thing where they’re preemptively on the attack against their ‘Hasan stan’ boogeyman

    Please give your eyes and your capital to Hasan

    The funniest thing about this kind of troll posting is that they always try to substitute in Marxist terminology in place of regular words in ways that don’t make any sense. It would be so much easier for you to just say that you haven’t read any Marx and that you don’t like Hasan without having to create a post with 17 layers of irony. You are embarrassing. You post as if you are a superior leftist but don’t understand even basic Marxist concepts.

    Money and Capital are not interchangeable terms. Capital is a specific type of money. Money is only Capital if it is used for the purpose of buying commodities which increase in value and then are sold for a profit. If you spend money on a candybar and then you eat that candybar, then it is not capital. If you watch a stream and give money to a streamer, it is just money, not capital. Most people don’t have capital or at least in a significant way.

    The simplest form of the circulation of commodities is C—M—C, the transformation of commodities into money, and the change of the money back again into commodities; or selling in order to buy. But alongside of this form we find another specifically different form: M—C—M, the transformation of money into commodities, and the change of commodities back again into money; or buying in order to sell. Money that circulates in the latter manner is thereby transformed into, becomes capital, and is already potentially capital.

    Now let us examine the circuit M—C—M a little closer. It consists, like the other, of two antithetical phases. In the first phase, M—C, or the purchase, the money is changed into a commodity. In the second phase, C—M, or the sale, the commodity is changed back again into money. The combination of these two phases constitutes the single movement whereby money is exchanged for a commodity, and the same commodity is again exchanged for money; whereby a commodity is bought in order to be sold, or, neglecting the distinction in form between buying and selling, whereby a commodity is bought with money, and then money is bought with a commodity. [2] The result, in which the phases of the process vanish, is the exchange of money for money, M—M. If I purchase 2,000 lbs. of cotton for £100, and resell the 2,000 lbs. of cotton for £110, I have, in fact, exchanged £100 for £110, money for money.

    What, however, first and foremost distinguishes the circuit C—M—C from the circuit M—C—M, is the inverted order of succession of the two phases. The simple circulation of commodities begins with a sale and ends with a purchase, while the circulation of money as capital begins with a purchase and ends with a sale. In the one case both the starting-point and the goal are commodities, in the other they are money. In the first form the movement is brought about by the intervention of money, in the second by that of a commodity.

      A Turkish expat in LA ‘working’ as a twitch streamer, who is simultaneously on speaking terms with both mainstream internet celebrities and people like Brace Belden and Hakim. If you were to insist on some kind of purity-test he probably comes out more left than liberal. Probably a net positive given the audience and the average effect on them, especially considering they might otherwise end up basing their view on the left from Va*sh or some other such ghoul.
