Not even sure why this dude is a thing besides he is being propped up as " See Left Wing Men can not look like fat feminist wimps"

The thing is this nikka is a rich Turkish kid, and someone made a good point he even said if shyt gets bad he can go back to Turkey. He does not represent the avg American who has no where to fukking run to and even if they are an immigrant changes are the place they can return to is in destitute hence they are here. This dude is cosplaying struggle rather than having to fight for his life. If it ever reached a point where blood needed to be shed this dude would be ghost.

Hasan was born in America and is a US citizen. He cannot go back to Turkey because he will be arrested due to his criticisms of Erdoğan.

The point isnt whether he will be nominee, its when the primary has ended, does he vote for the eventual winner?

This isn’t a “blue no matter who” question, it’s a “did we not see what happened when Republicans ran the table” question. A lot of folks domestically and abroad have and are dying due to direct decisions these people make and voting in a compromise candidate while still pushing progressive elsewhere is a thing.
His point of not answering that question how people wanted it was he's not trying to ordain Newsome like how he already was ordained. Newsome should have to work for his vote if he wants to win, new contract is signed every 4 years. As of right now Newsome the stand for nothing centrist is failing at winning votes ( mines included)

I don't understand this focus on him being a millionaire.. He lives here and loves America. He could have already moved, but he chose to become a class traitor and advocates for things like Medicare for all, free child care, a guaranteed living wage and government housing knowing full well he would have to pay more in taxes in order to achieve these goals. I've only been listening to him for about 2 years now, but I've gone back to older streams/interviews and he has been incredibly consistent in his beliefs.

He is definitely not cosplaying struggle 😆
He is a rich, good looking guy who knows he is a rich, good looking guy yet he pushes for socialism for the betterment of the people. For whatever reason that just irks people 😆. If he talked a bunch of capitalist smokescreens and was bigging up Moderates for ignoring the working class then all y'all would be like :ehh:

Most whites vote Republican regardless and I doubt many of them would've Dem if Kamala were a white woman.
Watch the rest of the video and you'll get a better sense on where he stands.
Personally I feel Hasan more right than wrong with his criticism with Democrats. Democrats have beaten us in the head that we need pragmatism, and take it slow, and don't rock the boat too much approach to where if we advocated for what we actually want we get called idealistic.
We are literally heading for the cliff off the mountain and we need to stop the soft shoeing that got us to this point and really lock it down before it is too late. With the way the Right is crashing, now is the perfect time to get the progressive policies popping but the moderates are so determined to not change that they are willing to bank on upset Republicans for the third time instead of going after their base that they have disillusioned. They are more willing to move right than to the left, and that should be a big problem if you see politics more than a team sport
I actually saw this video months ago so it is still fresh in my mind. The rest of the video is cool but realize he isn't necessarily spitting anything of note: he takes his time trying to pull current politicians to the left (fair enough) but is also flippant about the why and how. The talking about "Kamala needs to communicate what mass deportation looks like" is one of them hoe ass points I see from leftists. The people who voted FOR her, to a degree, knew what it meant. The college educated, likely living in blended cities folks knew it was bad news. The people who needed that shyt spelled out vote for MAGA.

He is obviously deeper in the weeds than a 2024 autopsy, but I hear the same points from leftists that fall on deaf ears. Lets be real breh, those of us who sit around and pontificate about this stuff are the eggheads. We aren't the casual audience in swing states that vote on vibes and just want to feel we could have a beer with a candidate and we can vaguely like their policies. Just like the DNC makes this constant misstep about trying to find "Reasonable Republicans" or the moderate and considerate voter, leftists have to stop arguing like regular people are going on senate/house/congress.gov and thoughtfully looking at policies. Add in the fact that white voters have been a pro-Republican bloc since the Civil Rights act and its pretty damn clear that "messaging" and going further left isn't the silver bullet. If Democrats aren't finding a way to connect narratives, no matter how far-fetched, to the absolute lowest common denominator, they will continue to be seen as elitest for some reason even when they are spitting on the money.

We know there aren't that many trans people, much less trans women in sports, but that shyt stuck. Same for this mythical millions crawling over the border which even Hassan covered later in the video. He mentions precisely it wasn't truly an issue BUT having governors send asylum seekers to other states and blaming it on the President somehow worked on a lot of dummies. His solution was jail the governors for trafficking :beli: When this is what leftist are talking about, you know exactly why the buzz is huge online but at the polls...shyt ain't wavy.

That’s the right attitude to have. The Dem establishment needs to cater to progressive voters with the same enthusiasm that they cater to Republicans voters like Liz Cheney and the mythical undecided voters.
Nope, this is wrong, and im starting to get tired of this point. What are the Democrats losing by us not voting for them nationally? They still win locally because they actually govern well, but what is gained? We know the deal: the top brass focus on corporate donors and whip against true progressivism.

The thing everyone should be talking about is not trying to turn a hoe into a housewife and implore folks to do more than wait 2 and 4 years hoping to hear the right message. Join your local DSA/preferred political org, advocate for grassroots candidates who emerge, and crush primaries.


Historical comparison​

The backstory:

This year’s primary turnout exceeded two of the last three midterm primary elections in Chicago, but it did not eclipse the 2018 election, during President Trump’s first term.

  • 2026 primary turnout: 27.3%
  • 2022 primary turnout: 22.8%
  • 2018 primary turnout: 32.6%
  • 2014 primary turnout: 16.5%
Midterm elections are typically lower turnout affairs compared to presidential election years, and primary elections also tend to see lower turnouts than general elections.

For example, during the last presidential election in 2024, Chicago saw a 25.8% turnout during the March primary, but then a 67.9% turnout in the general election.
People were jazzed about a fukking 27.3% turnout! Google your state and city and see what the turnout is. I have mail-in-voting in Chicago. Why was turnout so low? Progressives need to be working the streets getting primary turnouts up so we don't even have to get to the point of begging people who won without promising true reforms to become reformers. As long as we keep doing this "Please just listen to us" shyt, WE lose. The Democrats at the top are super fukking rich. They aren't learning lessons, they are extracting dollars from donors. We the voters keep trying to same shyt, losing everything in the meanwhile, and beg them to do something that someone in our primaries probably wanted to do.

The thing is this nikka is a rich Turkish kid, and someone made a good point he even said if shyt gets bad he can go back to Turkey.

This. He is rich. Not to say I think his principles aren't correct, and I agree with him that harm reduction is NOT a winning first priority, but between "principled" stances and the next voting cycle, people are losing ground and lots are dying here and abroad. Lots of people will tell you they vote to get what they can and avoid a backslide and guys like him cultivate a "Be this or we sit home" approach that does nothing meaningful in terms of educating his audience on the process and why what we as progressives want may not be broadly adopted by the majority voting populace. You can't argue that there should have been a full-court press to get Kamala across the finish line because Trump is way worse. Getting her in is not the end, but Trump and his ilk couldn't run forever. We needed to stall that mawfukka out.

This I agree with, but I wish he would have said (not that it matters) when asked that question in the original interview that we can't look at 2028 when we have 2026 knocking at our door. Basically "If Gavin wants my vote in 2028, he has to see what is happening in 2026 and adjust accordingly or get left behind."

Not this vote 3rd party shyt. Even in the video provided with him talking to the young guy, he also admits there is no viable 3rd party. If we say that and instead of bullshytting, say Gavin needs to be more like Mamdani or AOC or whomever he prefers, say that! There has to be implied "This is what we want" when you have an audience that big otherwise it's just asking sauce pans to not be a sauce pan when you need a skillet. You find skillets in primaries: don't gas up these people talking about "You have to move to the left", force it by highlighting those already there.

Part of the reason the Democrats were searching for a leftist Rogan is not because they wanted to educate, they want someone who connects to people on a level where there is no depth but you draw them into the tent. They miss the fact that people who are liberal, and definitely left, don't want the same thing as people on the right. Folks like Hassan have an opportunity to get specific and not play into the voter apathy, especially if he tip-toes into bothsides territory.

The problem is thinking you can even get the Republicans. Focus on the already large tent that is on the left because those are the people that'll either vote for you or not turnout to vote at all.
The Hasan reacting to the Leeja Miller video I posted goes further into his political thought than that debate does. All in all, he is just a dude giving his thoughts online but I do feel he is saying what a lot of people are saying or thinking but haven't put all the pieces together. He is way more of a net positive for Democrats to getting people on board with leftist policies but it's up to the Democrats to decide if they'll want to be pre 2016 Republicans or move the party left of center
