hasan piker (guy on the right) is actively making abdul el-sayed’s chances at election worse and i am frustrated about it given the stakes so i made this meme.

because like. my absolute BESTIE abdul el-sayed is out here working miracles at home trying to keep poc, migrant, low-income, queer, etc. people alive and doing the actual work of building a coalition, including making real inroads with his Jewish constituency, while being explicitly pro-Palestinian and rejecting AIPAC money.

hasan piker has made a handful of appearances with both abdul and zohran, but now abdul is getting viciously smeared for hasan’s own words, with fox news literally turning things hasan said into attack-ad material against him. and hasan just will not read the room and step back.

this is the same BOZO hasan piker who wears mao outfits, plays literal terrorist propaganda videos for his friends and goes “they’re just very musical people,” denies the Uyghur genocide, supports the invasion of Tibet, lies about queer rights in China while going on tours, and has said enough insane shit that even my OTHER bestie zohran mamdani disavowed him months ago. and the room is STILL unread and some people are trying to tell me i have to fall on the sword for piker.

do i have to beg ;;;;;;

i just want candidates who aren’t evil to win :’(

    Idk why people feel the need to defend hasan on this platform so much. he is directly depositing money into Amazon’s pocket by streaming on twitch. I feel like thats pretty antithetical to using platforms like lemmy. he has the budget to self host something like Peertube.

    this in addition to everything you said OP.

      Nobody goes on peertube. I have no idea about his policies but leaving mainstream sites would be a political suicide.

          Reposting on here in the minute chance mastodon takes off when twitter fails? Or just gets popular for some unknown reason. All they do is copy paste his whitehouse, and truth media shit everywhere.
