    I knew this was coming. I was just thinking yesterday how it’s amazing how he hasn’t been deplatformed already but given Trump, the circling of wagons ever tighten for the zionist occupation with propaganda like about the soccer hooligans. The hammer was inevitably going to fall on Hasan and the fact he makes Twitch money is not going to be enough to save him.

    He needs to be prepared to move his audience to a sovereign platform not under control or influence of imperialist outrage machine and he needs the plan for that ready yesterday.

    Not easy to do but at least some way he can keep in touch if the hammer falls and drag some portion of his audience which would end up being much smaller admittedly with him.

    Because I am positive that the new trifecta of Republicans are going to go for the old red meat and plenty of it, fearmongering about “radical left” and all that and Hasan is perfect for that. So while this outrage may or may not get him deplatformed from Twitch once it rises to the notice of Mr. Bezos that one of his machines is elevating an anti-imperialist anti-capitalist, I think we can be pretty sure the pressure will be dialed up to 11 sometime between January and summer of next year. The Democrats and liberals are all in on it and attacking the left after their loss to Trump, they’ll merrily join and call for more information control, more censorship in other words painted in rosier terms.

    When they pass laws to even further strip the 1st amendment of protections for anyone against empire it will be with the strong urging, support, and design of Democrats. And yet their blueanon voters will howl how Trump is the one who wants to censor and control things while their party urgently works to build a better machinery of control for him or anyone else instead of doing the obvious thing which is to push back on all attempts at censorship, to rebuke in times like these government power and meddling. Hopefully a few liberals notice this.

      I agree with you, and I’ll go one step further. Hasan needs to be prepared for unhinged Zionists attempting to murder him and his family. This ranges from hiring security to being prepared for self-defense to moving out of the US. The cold harsh reality is that Hasan is no longer safe in any Western country. These Zionist freaks are no joke when they feel like the legal system will protect them, and they will be protected. And I’m saying this as someone who doesn’t particularly like his content or particularly respect streamers as an occupation. But I know a call to “rid this troublesome priest” when I see one.

      People in this thread shouldn’t be in some celebratory mood. Things are going to escalate really fast from here. Kicking him off Twitch is a given and an inevitability, but the Zionists will not stop there. They will first start to do light property damage like slashing his tires. Then they’ll escalate to something like firebombing his house. Then they’ll escalate even further by trying to harm but not kill him and his family.

      Remember, we saw a bunch of Zionist football hooligans attempt to conduct a pogrom on Dutch Moroccans and the entire Western media go, “uh atkually, the pogrom was conducted against the hooligans not by the hooligans.” This is no joke, and I hope Hasan doesn’t treat this as one.

        Yeah he unironically should leave the country to a place that is not part of the “western” world and even then he should consider hiring a security detail as you said.

        I fear its only going to get worse from here…

          The problem with that is western Europe, Canada, Australia and the like are just as likely to be dangerous in this regard and if one thinks he’s in danger of intelligence action then moving to some third world/global south country with less developed security and police forces makes it even easier to do something like an assassination or assault without much premeditation or risk it goes wrong and your operation gets blown like you have to work around in much of the west.

          Basically the only safe places that comes to mind would be Russia, China, Iran, Cuba but moving to any of those would immediately allow them to paint him as a foreign agent and apply even harsher propaganda and deplatforming techniques as well as probably more dangerous things like arrest warrants, sanctions, being on no-fly-list type of things.

          I don’t think they want to do anything but silence him at this point.

          I can’t claim I’ve watched any amount of his content. I find his history on women’s rights problematic to say the least (incredibly liberal-brained) but he’s unambiguously doing good work in the anti-imperialist sphere and as with Russia our bedfellows may not always be people we find beacons of morality and uprightness.

            Well, I can’t say how much active danger he’s in… but theres a huge difference between individual actors (just some angry chuds), who can mostly be deterred by a security detail, and state actors. State actors are a much more significant threat, which I don’t need to explain.

            If the main threat is from chuds, moving to a country less involved in the culture war and investing in good security could already help quite a bit.

            If we’re talking about state actors… well, I guess he could claim political asylum in China or Russia if he wants to be as safe as possible.

            EDIT : OFC Moving to a non-western country is gonna paint him as a foreign agent …but lets be real the way things are going they might fuck with him even without him moving to China.

              Well the thing is with the zionists there is no dividing line between their intelligence and their casual thugs, they literally bring their “ex”-IDF and Mossad goons to college protests and use chemical weapons on people, they send them with soccer hooligans to Amsterdam to cause trouble and inflict more damage, etc. So in their case there is little distinction where some zionist freaks end and the reach of their state begins.

      Frankly, and Im not trying to be alarmist or anything, if I were him, Id consider leaving the country. Being this close to so many unhinged people doesnt seem safe in the long run, and being a prominent, openly left-wing person is likely to become even more dangerous in the U.S. over time. He can do his job from practically anywhere in the world. Hasan must have at least considered it.
