    “Not only is he an evil socialist leftist, but he’s also in great physical shape and rather attractive.”

    Weird flex, but ok.

      I’m guessing that’s why they are so hard on AOC. She is a woman, minority, smart and attractive. They are most upset about being attracted to her.

    JFC. Last week, my therapist asked me if I knew who Hasan Piker was… it was surrreal… like the internet broke containment and entered real life.

    I’m in therapy for stress and anger management… sometimes politics comes up. My therapist is a middle aged wine mom from the suburbs who literally has one of those “Coexist” bump stickers on her Toyota Prius. I told her I disagreed with him on some stuff, but that I’m probably not his audience. She told me she was watching more of his clips on YouTube. I didn’t know what to say to that.

        Most of the people in the White House are right wing internet trolls. We live in sad times.

      I’m legitimately not sure whether, as Hasan Piker, I’d feel more like I’d made it (to some extent you can judge a person by the quality of their enemies) or if I’d worry more about stochastic terrorism.

        I’ve watched some of Hasan’s reactions to this, and it mostly just seems like he thinks the RNC is sad and obsessed with him. He doesn’t need their attention and he’s certainly not afraid of them

    I remember when Trump first came onto the scene and one of the things he was really good at was monopolizing all the attention. I really wonder if all this attention on figures like Hassan is just playing into their hands. After all, they do say that there is no such thing as bad publicity

    Where the video?!? I wanna see the convention goers’ reaction when it actually happened

    EDIT

    Found the video.

    The convention is showing a montage video of clips and pics, in which they display his undie pic for 3 seconds, then the montage continues. There’s no audible reaction from the crowd. The audience isn’t visible here so we don’t know if they physically reacted.

    What a terrible thing! How horrible! I wonder if this Hasan Piker person has been made aware? Has anyone put together a collection of these pictures… For him to acknowledge later?
    … Is there a link? I mean, we need to bring… erm… justice and stuff to this… So like, if anyone has a collection…
