I’ll preface this by saying I’m not much of a hasan watcher, he just puts out too many hours of shit for me and the density of analysis or even entertainment is so low compared to good non-streaming slop.
but what I have seen from him lately doesn’t bear this out. His feeling that Kamala is likely to win is simply not an endorsement, nor do I see it as “glazing her up”. He is analysing the horse race, and I think he’s right that if she plays her cards right the stain of this genocide will not hurt her nearly as much as it hurt Biden, regardless of the reality (that she is seemingly just as committed to isntrael and supportive of genocide as biden is). I don’t know if I saw the clip where she said ceasefire, but I’m willing to be that again that’s about better messaging/optics for her, not about action.
Now is it responsible to take such glee in analyzing the horse race and has he done enough to show his audience how horrible Kamala will also be? Probably not. Like I said he’s far from flawless, I just don’t think its fair to say he supports Kamala or promotes her to his audience
His coverage of Kamala, especially the last couple days, has not been just analyzing the “horse race”. I’m not saying he agrees with her policies/actions.
But his coverage has been focused on getting her elected, becuase to him she is good enough while Biden was not. This might even be your position. But where I draw the line, and where it really galls me, is when he lies about her record and views on Palestine.
What was a redline when it came to Biden is just an inconvenient truth to be hidden and ignored until the election.
None of what Squirrel has talked regarding Kamala on Palestine has gotten any coverage on Hasan’s streams. When her views on Palestine come up, in fact, you could be forgiven for assuming she is even pro-Palestine (at least compared to others near her position), if all you do is watch Hasan.
I’ll have to watch more of his coverage then because that’s very unfortunate if true. it was not the vibe I got but like I said, not watched much of it.
I don’t get what’s like very specific about mentioning only what squirrel has said about kamala on the thread. It is known to him and his chatters what the democrat stance is. And what kamala’s stance is. Its supporting the genocide. Just cause he didn’t extensively talk about what posts she shared doesn’t mean he wants to lead his audience to vote for her.

Wydm getting her elected, do you think he is running some super pac for kamala.
He didn’t lie though. He said we shall and wait how she will position herself regarding Israel.
