I used to think that about Hasan as well, but supporting Bernie and AOC is going the opposite direction and moving people that couldve continued down the leftist pipeline back towards the center.

I think he pointed out something interesting after the election where a lot of leftist content creators who were supporting the Dems lost a lot of subscribers, and he did not, which he attributed it to him being more critical of the Dems than the others. I think this is true, and people are yearning for a unbiased opinion that matches with reality. I think, for this reason, now is the best time to break with the Democratic party, but instead he is just redirecting these people who have lost faith in the Dems back towards the Dems in the form of the progressive wing, which are not revolutionary and serve the status quo.
