    This dudes full of shit. Hasan says dumb shit all the time but he isn’t supporting mass murder and he said America deserved 9/11 in the sense that the blow back was earned due to our foreign policy. He’s apologized, he’s clarified etc etc etc. It’s bullshit talking point from ten plus years ago and people still cry about it even though it’s factually correct

    America’s involvement in Afghanistan and the middle east in general created the conditions that caused 9/11. We reaped what we sowed.

    Next they will say that he doesn’t care that Jewish people were raped on October 7th while ignoring the context that he doesn’t care what Hamas did on October 7th because it doesn’t justify a genocide.

    It’s all so fucking tired and annoying. I dislike stream bro rhetoric but I’m so sick of every other conversation I see online about dsa or leftists devolving into some shit hasan said thats removed from context.

      Of course he’s right, but it’s meat for the anger zombies of the right. No one would seriously consider him anti American imo, just words with no meaning.

      He bought a suit strictly because it looked like Chairman Mao’s and sweeps for him regularly. This is recent you can look this up. Not at all removed from context.

      Edit: but the tankie squad is out in full force it seems

        Okay. Let me pretend that’s the reason… Who actually gives a shit?

            I’m sorry but the type of suit he’s wearing doesn’t make him anti-American. China has made a lot of advancements in the last 100 years. There’s nothing wrong with respecting that.

            They have plenty of issues with totalitarianism the same way America does that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate aspects of America’s history and vice versa for China.

            Fdr put Japanese people in concentration camps, but if somebody wore a suit that was styled after a suit that FDR wore and talked about all of the amazing things FDR did. I wouldn’t say they’re anti-American.

            This isn’t the goal post moving. This is people thinking that bringing up the type of suit the guy wears is stupid.

              You seem to forget that I said he also sweeps for Mao, but I get that reading is really hard.
