OK we're done here.

I realize I'm probably just enabling your unhealthy Hasan obsession by continuing to talk to you. Please talk to someone, either a family member or a mental health professional. You are not well.

Hasan is not your friend, he's just an internet guy. You can think for yourself, you don't need him to think for you.

    GOP voter suppression out in full force aren't you?

    PSA: Ignore all these accounts that are just saying variations of "BOTH SIDES". This is a voter suppression tactic.

    Republicans are fascist, Democrats are not. This may be your last chance to vote against fascism.

    Because they're talking about the issues the voters care about most.

    But not to worry, you can think for yourself about which party is likely to be better on the climate. Is it the party that started building wind power projects? Or is it the party that actually paid money to cancel those projects?

    Yeah it should have a clever name like most opensource projects, preferably with a clever recursive acrynomyn. Maybe call it something like the "InfoBay Manipulation Analytical Computational Universal Network Technology."

    Yeah you're telling people to not vote because everyone is a fascist other than you. You're carry water for the fascists, the only question is whether you're aware of it or not. But the answer to that question is irrelevant.

    To everyone who's not a "leftist" propagandists, you should vote. There will never be a candidate that exactly matches your views. You vote to remove the fascists from power. To make sure there is no confusion here: The Republicans are facists, the Democrats are not fascists. Vote for Democrats if you oppose fascism.

    Ignore the memes, they could be coming from Russia or who the fuck knows where. Vote out the fascists out. It may be your last chance to do it.

    Then why did she initially endorse Abdul before his campaign rejected her ass like 2 days before endorsing the MAGA candidate Mike Rogers?

    Because of this ad: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/disgusting-pro-el-sayed-ad-212940137.html?guccounter=1

    I don't think it quite rises to antisemitism, but as a Canadian I see the same mentality as Trump. Trump blames Canada for the US not having healthcare, and apparently Sayed blames Israel for the US not having healthcare. Both are lying and promoting xenophobia.

    Sayed is clearly bad at building coalitions. This is thing with Leftists. There's an expectation that everyone should automatically jump to support them. Everyone that questions anything must be a ZIONIST!!!!

    Politics is about building coalitions and making compromises. One of Sayed's major weaknesses is that the working class feels like he abandoned them because something happening on the other side of the world is more important to him than they are. He was struggling to build a coalition so the Dems brought out the big guns (Obama) to help him build a coaltion.

    I'm pretty sure he has the anti-Israel crowd voting for him even without the ad. What he needs is to show he cares about other issues. All he had to do is agree to pull the ad (it's useless to him anyway) and he'd have secured Haley Steven's endorsement. It's a really stupid move.

    But that's leftism, isn't it? You don't need to make compromises, you don't need to make smart political moves, because you're right and everyone that disagrees with you is an EVIL ZIONIST!

    I'm from Canada and the US is like bizarro world to me. Here it's just the conservatives that nominates weirdos that conform to internet memes that as candidates. They lose because being an elected representative requires more than just conforming to internet memes.

    Sayed, is a weak candidate. You can't see that because he conforms to your internet memes, and there is nothing else other than your memes and EVIL ZIONISTS! So now what should be an easy win (Rogers is a very weak candidate and Trump is dragging down the GOP besides that) will be a nail-biter on Tuesday.

    You obviously want to hate the Dems, you ignore the fact that they brought in Obama to help him. You'll likely be voting for the GOP in 2028, you're just looking for an excuse at this point.

    you lie that liberals are fighting for universal healthcare, we have fucking eyes and memories longer then a 6 month campaign cycle, and a campaign promise is worth jack

    Can you also count? These things aren't happening because not enough people vote for it. Too many pricks on the internet telling people not to vote because everyone is a fascist.

    BTW, I just checked and yes Hasan is indeed on the front page of twitch.tv, a website owned by Jeff Bezos. Not logged in, it's just how twitich.tv is for everyone.

    You might think you're in a special little secret club of the socialist resistance, but you're actually just consuming content actively promoted one of the wealthiest men in the world.

    I think this is typical leftist behavior of spending more time attacking Democrats than attacking Republicans. I mean why do you have so much interest in a candidate that's out of the race, rather than the person Sayed is actually running against?

    The Democrats have really going to bat for Sayed. Obama going to Michigan appearing in ads with him. I see even the Bulwark crowd going full on about Rogers being a racist. Obama wouldn't have gone to Michigan if this was a lock for Sayed, he would've gone somewhere else instead.

    Learn to read the signs, Sayed is a weak candidate. Obama wouldn't be putting in so much effort for a strong candidate. Some things are personal, Hayley Stevens isn't going full MAGA, she just has concerns about Sayed's association with antisemitsm. What everyone wants is for Sayed to strongly condemn antisemitism, but he's a little weak on that, which is indeed concerning. Everyone needs to decide for themselves whether that's ok or not. His association with Hasan "America deserved 911" Piker, is a really big liability too. Many working class people in Michigan feel betrayed by the uncommitted movement which Sayed was a part of. Sayed has a lot of baggage, which is why he's a weak candidate. His past is a legitimate cause for concern, being soft on antisemitism is a huge cause for concern. I personally think Stevens is wrong (Rogers sucks more than Sayed), but Sayed is certainly problematic.

    Bottom line is an endorsement by Obama is a much bigger thing than an endorsement by Hayley Stevens. If you actually wanted Sayed to win, you'd downplay what Stevens said and amplify Obama's endorsement. Hasan is focussing on Stevens (ignoring Obama) to make a case against Democrats. Gee... wonder why Hasan is on the front page of a website owned by Jeff Bezos?

    It's about 50/50 whether Sayed loses a race that could've been an easy win if had have been a stronger candidate. Everyone knows this, the DSA crowd is looking for someone to blame if their bullshit causes the Dems to lose a Senate seat. Hopefully he wins, but it's gonna be really tight. And that's really saying something given how much Rogers sucks.

    Hasan and the DSA are a huge liability. Everyone knows this, including Hasan.

    You stood in front of a gun aimed at a Jeffrey Class billionaire.

    So now you're making implied threats of violence?

    You've gone too deep on this shit. I don't even know this Dan Saltman is.

    You should really take some time to think about things. If someone thinks Hasan and Trump have similarities, either they like both Trump and Hasan, or they dislike both of them. It's not at all rational to think someone that thinks they're both the same must love Trump and hate Hasan. You're thoughts are very scattered and irrational.

    It's not healthy to have this level of para-social attachment to someone on your screen. Hasan is just a guy that says controversial things on the internet to make money. He's not your friend, he's certainly not the messiah. Your level of devotion to this internet guy is an indication that you are mentally unwell. I'm not saying this to be rude or to "own you" or whatever. You should seek out some help from a professional.

    This is not healthy.

    Yeah, so compromise is a two way street. If you're position is that you want to burn down everything and implement a system that's failed every time it's been tried, and you'll label everyone that doesn't agree with you as a fascist, there's not much anyone can do.

    Nobody is compromising with the fascists, they are compromising with the center right though. Of course if you see everyone as a fascist... well see the first sentence.

    If you're going to retreat back to "well I just want healthcare!" that's what liberals have been trying to do for decades. You're too busy being uncommitted and going on rants about how everyone that disagrees with you is a fascist for you to notice. And you're not reliably voting against fascism, because you don't even know what fascism is.

    To avoid fascists remaining in power, the only option for the political opposition to fascism is to compromise with people that reliably vote. That isn't you. If you're uncommitted to democracy, don't cry when democracy has to move on without you. You chose to turn your back on democracy because corporate social media told you authoritarianism is better than democracy. Communists and fascists are just drinking a different flavour of authoritarian kool-aid, but you're all drinking the authoritarian kool-aid.
