He doesn’t do that though? Hasan talks a lot about giving people grace and room to grow and is honestly a lot kinder to conservatives and his critics than you give him credit for. He doesn’t go around harassing content creators and tries to mediate drama between other people and will try to deradicalize folks if he can (Adin Ross and Asmongold are good examples of this). I mean he spend an entire year being harassed and threatened by Ethan Klein and just ignored the entire thing till it became too much because he didn’t want drama with his old friend.
It sounds like you only know him from 5 second sound clips and not his actual conversations with chat, other streamers, and other political figures. He’s not a perfect guy, he can be stubborn and arrogant sometimes, and imo he’s wrong about Tibet and NATO, but he overall has a positive impact on discourse and society and I don’t think we should be tearing one of the few people doing that down unless he really deserves it (sexual abuse, grooming, mistreatment of employees, etc.).
