Yea Ok, but Hassan only cares about clout. That’s it. He found his grift on the left and has capitalized on it. Any attempt to build coalitions, lift up the left or acquire power for the movement is undercut by his need for more clout. He’s not the ally the movement needs, but a peak representation of superficial rhetoric that the left seems to be drawn to these days. The medium is the message or whatever

Man, destiny sure lives rent free in your heads holy shit.

I would like to see the online members bridge the connection to real world activism with real call to actions. I do plan to get involved in real world organizations again as I’ve been involved in the past tangentially. That being said, without some type of coalition building and community activism it becomes stale. I’m all about that class consciousness, but there is the difference between “being” and “doing”, and the reality is only the latter matters.

I’d take the green party more seriously if they ditched Jill Stein. 159 local seats is not nothing, but if you take into account the entire life span of the green party, it’s not great either. We need to make real world strides, and I don’t think that’s accomplished by deriding liberals or democrats non-stop. It just won’t work.

I’d understand or join with the lefty never-voting-anti-capitalist tankies if they had a plan, or a strategy, or a goal, or a coalition they were building towards. But there is nothing. No movement, no goals, no aims to achieve political power. It’s all virtue signaling. We have people from Syria and Palestine literally begging the lefties to cease their rhetoric because it’s causing more harm than good. But the reality is lefties aren’t interested in solutions. They want to feel good about their online social media activism and watch Hassan Piker stream from a luxury hotel in Cuba while 90% of the country goes without electricity. That is the peak american socialist movement.
