none of the people saying this shit really believe it or would give a fuck if someone they didnt hate did it. they just want to believe it because finally they “have proof he’s bad”

bro streamed for thousands of hours and somehow we only caught him electrocuting her once. sounds likely!

    I would absolutely give a shit if someone I didn’t hate shocked the dog they live with because it’s a cruel and fucked up thing to do. Equally, I don’t consider Hasan a titan of moral fortitude who couldn’t possibly participate in an incredibly common cruelty.

    Most importantly, I do not give a shit about this thing I am only aware of because of the parasocial relationships endemic to this website. I am not friends with Hasan and have no influence over his life. If he did it, that sucks and he should correct himself immediately; people defending the alleged act should correct themselves immediately. If he didn’t, the second clause still holds.

    The culture and infrastructure that powers “streaming” as a career is actively corrosive to society and the biosphere, so 🤷

      For me personally it’s offensive seeing such fake bullshit permeate the internet, spreading like a cancer

      It’s not impossible that it happened,but seeing who exactly spreads this nonsense tells me all I need to know

      Like him or not,he has the most vile Zionists looking to shut him down over the most fake, inane, Israel-tier shit “controversies”,and it’s not just about him,it’s about pro Palestine voices being silenced with this torrent of bullshit,he’s just the most visible one

      Also,why is everyone on the left immediately up his ass? If you don’t care/ don’t wanna look it up,don’t engage until it resolves itself and you might hear the resolution through cultural osmosis,or you do care enough to look it up and you see it’s pure unfiltered bullshit. Ok,you find him distasteful,sure,but you do realize you’re choosing to trust the word of a gaggle of human roaches that spend all day trying to create drama to discredit him for his opinions,no? Its less about him and what he represents to non politically active people who might want to be educated on the issue. By removing him,as “corrosive” as he is, you’re leaving the field wide open for the assorted right wing insect like comentariat to dominate social media

      i’m not saying nobody would give a shit, i’m saying THESE PEOPLE don’t give a shit, and only pretend to because it’s against hasan.

      i also didn’t say it would be impossible for him to do it, just that he probably didn’t, because why would he do something like that so blatantly on stream as if he wouldn’t know people were going to take an issue with it even if he were the type of person to do that? it makes no sense.

      it’s posted in slop for a reason lol, you don’t need to convince anyone that twitch is slop

        Temp/comm bans for anti-slop posting in c/slop! If somebody has a problem with it, they probably meant to block it themselves anyway!
