Any comment that has to point out his politics or "concerns with him" is completely missing the point.

I have a like/dislike perspective on Hasan Piker.
Hes tankie-lite. Critical support for him in this case though, fuck ICE.
Its probably an indicator that I really need to touch grass that I'm primarily curious what Ethan Klein and Lonerbox think of this.
Man, I liked some of Klein's videos from way back ( idubbbz as well) but when YouTubers shift from whatever content they were making to making content about the platform or others on it I usually check out real quick.
I also can't do 3 hour podcasts where people talk over each other and yell either so maybe I'm just not the target demo anymore.
Its further an indication that I need to touch grass that when I read your name I think of Vaush's editor.

Pretty sure dude is a leftist. Capitalist media has never encountered this before.
Borderline tankie. Remember him being best buds with putin before russia attacked Ukraine? Dude probably still blames NATO for that.
I can't find any evidence for this? I only found a source of him saying Putin wouldn't invade Ukraine.
Hasan Piker: I said Russia will never invade Ukraine, because Putin is a bad person, but he's not a mad person.
This is the reason I am extremely cautious with anyone of this ilk. There seems to be too many people who happen to be leftist. Socialist. Whatever. And then out of nowhere.. whitewashing of putin/russia/soviets. .. because america / nato / West bad.
Which I won't abide for. Ever
It's too bad they didn't let him stream it. That would've been peak content.
The questioning (though harmless) is often a stepping stone to more drastic measures. In the place where I live (not the US), my local religious police does questioning to make sure that activists are not posting their status online. This sort of measure helps them evade accountability and keeps the general public in ignorance.
The questioning (though harmless)
There's nothing "harmless" about kidnapping people and coercing them into an interrogation.

Yep, that's some of the harm.

Careful. Depending on which not-the-US country you're in, this could be flagged as anti-semitism.
