"If Democrats pander to the bigots and haters on the left, as Republicans have done with the bigots and haters on the right, there will be nothing left of the pro-democracy movement."

I used to tune in to the Bulwark daily. Attacking Piker like this is a mistake. Criticizing the state of Israel is not antisemitic. I don’t care that he made fun of Dan Crenshaw. 9/11 *was* blowback for our meddling in the region. Hasan is just giving voice to what many Americans are thinking.

and another moron. yeah, go around my neighborhood and tell all my neighbors America deserved 9/11 you won't because you are either a coward or you know most Americans think that is batshit insane. but you do you. even basic history is beyond you. OBL did it because US troops were in Arabia

If The Bulwark panders to the genociders & war criminals on behalf of billionaires, as Republicans have always done, they should return home to their pro-war & neocon roots. 4 weeks into the Iran War & you are busy smearing a left Twitch streamer? No cred, your org is just a chopped saboteur

This is the take I expect from Mona Charen, but it’s ridiculous to compare the dumb shit Hasan blurts out with the bigotry on the right. If he says something bad on an 8-hour stream, call it out. But it’s dishonest to say it’s the same as the right, where saying hateful stuff is the whole point.

apparently Piker cried and all his cultish followers have come here to whine redefining for him the meaning of America deserved 9/11 or somehow it is ok to say an elderly Vietnamese woman should suck his cock. BLOCK PARTY TIME.

Probably should have had a new guy write this hatchet job instead of your most ancient racist, homophobic, and transphobic writer

wait, his saying an elderly refugee woman from Vietnam who was telling of her hardships there should suck his cock means that the elderly Vietnamese woman is stomping on our necks? did you even read the fucking article? or do you agree it is ok to mock elderly refugee women?

Hasan uses coarse language like most Americans do. He isn't a bigot. There's a difference that you are obscuring for the purpose of serving the ruling class. That's a grave, unforgivable sin, one far greater than Hasan has ever committed.

"People who have hated on Hasan Piker" is not a great list to be on. I tolerate some of his views that I may not totally agree with the same way I tolerate some of The Bulwark's views I may not totally agree with.

The US is a rights-protecting republic. This requires support for individual rights and capitalism, not “democracy.” The GOP is the worst we’ve ever seen, but the dems have never been an alternative to authoritarianism. Most MAGA positions are historically dem positions.

Wait “they shouldn’t repeat the GOP’s mistake”. It’s all so clear now. If Hasan is platformed then the centrists of the party will lose power be removed by a populist movement who will radically shift national politics to their position. That’s exactly what the left want! keep platforming Hasan!

Every Fox News anchor is ten times worse than Hasan, Brian Kilmeade called for the murder of every homeless person for example. Hasan is a voice the left need. America did deserve 911, not the people in the building, the country, for its decades of warmongering and hate.

nonsense. if you can't call out the terrible people on the left then you will be labeled a hypocrite by the right. why be in a Piker cult? he literally said America deserved 9/11, if you can't condemn that, if you have to "explain" he meant something else you are losing. adults criticize their own

Let’s be honest the right has been calling the left everything they can imagine for a decade now. The billionaires want us to fight each other so we don’t organize against them. Meanwhile the left is concerned about purity tests. Take power back, fix the problems, then argue about labels.

omg so no standards? he said America deserved 9/11, that is divisive as hell. if you can't cut him loose then we are doomed because how the hell can you reach normal Americans who aren't podcast listening weirdos? Obama was influenced by Reinhold Niebuhr and MLK Jr. not a guy who said "suck my cock"

Hasan haters are about to get a lesson in the Streisand effect. You're also going to continue to fail to convince us he's evil because you take his comments out of context or clutch your pearls over sarcastic comments he made on his twitch stream.

yeah, because people who normally read THE BULWARK are now suddenly going to follow Piker. the only people here are readers of the Bulwark or Piker's bitches who came here to whine. there is no context where it is ok to say America deserved 9/11 or an elderly refugee woman should suck his cock

the point is to condemn what he says. he is an "influencer" who is toxic to the party. look at all the cult weirdos who come here to defend him without ever addressing the things he said.

he literally said an elderly Vietnamese refugee woman should suck his cock because she was talking about how bad her life was in Vietnam. he is an asshole. sorry you can't see that.

This indicates “nineties brain” disease All these critiques of Hasan take every single thing out of context The world’s a different place than it once was, if only because of changes in info tech Time to discard the Clinton stink, and get back to the only real brand the dem party has, that of FDR

The Bulwark writing more posts condemning Hasan Piker than calling out the US supporting Israel genociding all of its neighbors with US tax dollars and weapons. Really focusing on the big problems 👍🏻

Yep! And just yesterday Ro Khanna was asked on Meet The Press if he’ll continue to support and engage with Piker. Is that what we’re asking politicians and people in power now? Given every fucking insane thing that’s going on????

is this a joke? he said an elderly woman who is a refugee from Vietnam who was recounting difficulties she had there when young that she should "suck his cock" yeah, real Martin Luther King Jr. inspiring stuff. Reinhold Niebuhr probably should have read Piker... just fucking grow the hell up.

U.S. isn’t leading—it’s following, & Israel is dragging America down. This didn’t start in Iran & won’t end there.🤦🏿‍♂️

Notorious VOG@notoriousvog.bsky.social

Everyone’s outraged over U.S. hitting a bridge in Iran, but Israel has been striking infrastructure across the region for years with barely a peep. No excuse—just exposing hypocrisy. U.S. isn’t leading—it’s following, & Israel is dragging America down. This didn’t start in Iran & won’t end there.🤦🏿‍♂️

So because he doesn’t support Israel as an ethnostate and an apartheid state as well as not being supportive of establishment Dems we should shun him? He’s just calling out what ppl don’t have the cojonas to say.

Welcome to America. Now, we know you boys aren’t from around here, but just to let you know we got both kinds of politics: Republican and Republican-lite.

Stop worrying about other influencers and create a record of success that attract people so that they support you. The Democrats seem to be waiting for the Republicans to fail and be the only choice rather than present an agenda that excites and inspires people.

Sarah and Mona would rather dems lose and seede more control to fascists than admit they are wrong and allow the dems to lift up leftist voices. If you are against Trump and MAGA, why are you listening to these 2 people?

'Why Democrats Should Shun Mona Charen and The Bulwark' "If Democrats listen to never-trump dumbasses like the folks at 'The Bulwark' or 'The Lincoln Project,' they'll just lead the party further down the fascist-lite path."
