          he used to be a D tier starcraft competitor. It makes more sense when you realize it’s a gamertag from a decade and a half or more ago. He didn’t make that up for his debate bro phase, he just couldn’t compete and over time found more viewers and money in being a debate bro. it was weird finding him doing that after not being online for a good while when last I remember was him being a starcraft player

      Friends of the pod is deeply cursed, they even occasionally get in beef with eachother (for example pointing out that one of the hosts of their pod went on Survivor during, they insist, the most important political campaign of their lives)

      Sometimes the podjons and the guests can be too centrist even for them, it’s always fun to see their hairsbreadth left of centre critiques

        Maybe my favorite example of what you’re talking about was after the first debate - podjons were visibly shaken by his performance and were floating replacing him, and the subreddit and most of the lib media world absolutely lost it.

        That was my favorite day of this campaign (so far)

        They included some clips of those statements, idk. They’re obviously pretty out of context but it’s admittedly not Hasan’s best moment. I don’t know what the broader context was there, and the guy who clipped it seems like a Destiny troll obviously looking for fodder to comment on. I’m sure he keeps talking about that take where the clip abruptly cuts off - maybe he clarifies or walks it back - but without knowing where it came from myself I can’t say for sure.

        As someone who doesn’t watch Hasan, I was wondering if that was true. That was the only point that sounded bad, everything else sounded frankly, awesome, or like the same purposeful misconstruing of anti-Zionism with antisemitism.

        No, he’s talking about Hasan. From this article:

        I’ve had sex with, not even escorts—I’ve gone to a brothel, Artemis, in Berlin, and had sex with the workers there.

        CW discussion of SA and sex work

        And I believe the “industrialized r***” comment is a reference to the claim that all sex work isremoved which, depending on who you ask, is either SWERF shit or the Only Correct Leftist Position. I don’t know if this community has had a reckoning on sex work yet so we’ll see how that goes.

          I really hope there’s no one here who’d call that “SWERF” shit, the liberal “freedom to be exploited” should be see through to communists at least dear god I hope so. Being forced to sell your body under the threat of homelessness and death is one of the highest forms of patriarchal and capitalist explotation, we can play what if about unionization or legalization but everytime that plays out in our capitalist system the global system of literal sexual slavery in this form of the pimp/prostitute dialectic is heightened to terrifying industrial extremes. A few bourgeoise talking heads that can leave the industry without fear of being killed might tell us this is the path and they may genuinely believe it, but for the sake of the hyper exploited women of the world and especially trans women the liberal “sex worker” narrative needs to be rejected in favor of the true liberation these people deserve.

I really hope to share this with others because I really feel like there’s just so much on the line and it’s a disturbingly common view especially in settler spaces.

              Yes, because it’s written by a SWERF.

              Edit:

              Here’s a thorough takedown of Esperanza Fonseca and her org AF3IRM. It should also be noted that the same org does not only include vocal TERFs, but is funded by evangelical fundamentalists who actively fight access to abortion and trans healthcare. Like i said upthread to the chauvinist you’re replying to, the Venn diagram of SWERFs and TERFs is almost a circle and every leftist space i know that is open to SWERFs has over time devolved into a transphobic shitfest, i know trans women who’ve been physically assaulted in spaces like that. I’m not gonna sit by and let this shit infringe on this site.

              This is a sensitive issue. I care so, so much about people in this position more than I could ever convey over the internet and concerning more than I’d ever be willing to share. Why be so dismissive to someone with hate, even if misguided, towards an industry that inarguably in our current day exists through mass enslavement and gender based systemic oppression both economic and cultural?

        I appreciate the honesty, Mao’s “No investigation, no right to speak” is a golden rule. I really liked the redsails link Miz posted and would suggest you read it for yourself even beyond your mod duties, it sums up the way many people I’ve known who’ve escaped the industry feel in my experience.

          TBH I’ve read it, but I’ve also read critiques of it. It’s really hard for me to take sides, especially as a dude who works in an office. Can people please not have a struggle session in this comm, you’re welcome to make your own post in theory or effort.

              Please just leave this discussion to a mod or admin with more knowledge. I asked you not to have a struggling session here yet you’re still doing it.
