Holy shit
I'm not watching this entire thing, but it's bad. I watched some sections and holy shit.
The first random thing I happened upon was Hasan talking about trans issues, overtalking someone from the chat who disagreed with him and demanded evidence which was literally open on his screen at the time, called them transphobic (?), then banned a trans person who chimed in to say that yes they agreed and Hasan was doing a bad job arguing for trans issues, and then spent extensive time berating them on stream, wishing bad things on them in the future...
I honestly can't even do it justice.

Holy crap man. I generally sort of discount people trying to find reasons to nitpick some leftist voice, because pretty much everyone has some kind of imperfection and whatever, it's fine, we don't need to constantly be shedding allies because fuck anyone who ever did something allegedly etc etc whatever. Anyone can have a bad day if they're on streams a ton of the time... but this is bad. And it makes me not surprised at all if he has the same type of super-confident wrong take on geopolitical issues.

You should catch up on the Ethan Klein and Hasan drama, it’s pretty damn juicy. I think when it comes to these online debate-bros, you should take note of how often they admit their mistakes and take accountability for their actions. I don’t think Hasan has ever admitted he was entirely wrong about an issue. When he does admit wrongdoing, it’s always some sort of catch or ‘but’ attached to it.
Try not to judge society by them though, they don’t have much sway over the majority of the population.
