I hope Hasan understands that he’s in like, actual danger if Elon has him in his crosshairs. Like, I hope he has a go bag and an exit plan, he already got detained by ICE and I worry next time they won’t let him go
He's got several loaded guns in the room for anybody who wants to larp as an assassin. But he openly welcomes being arrested because he's intentionally weaponizing his privilege and status.
Imagine Hasan becoming a 21st Century Eugene Debs.
Hasan becomes the American Gramsci.
Hasan being arrested would be an extreme escalation. It's one thing to go after student protestors nobody's ever heard of before, but Hasan has been on CNN, he's one of the biggest names on twitch and friends with dozens of mainstream influencers. Everyone under the age of 30 would hear about it.
It would definitely be an escalation, but I feel like it would be in line with the escalations they’ve already been doing
I mean...the nazis had no qualms about killing Rosa Luxemburg when she was a well-known information outlet. They already started killing students by the time they got around to Rosa. She was happily turned over by the liberals at the time.
The ghouls over at CNN aren't going to give a shit if a left-ish twitch streamer gets deported to El Salvador and the consequences for doing so will be non-existent. The state kills innocent people all the time and it never lights a spark. Luigi may end up getting the death penalty and it's not going to set off a revolution if that happens.
The amount of escalation the right wing is currently doing this wouldn’t be a surprise at all
It would be sick if they arrest him, I bet even Hasan wants it to happen
I heard bademp tolds him this as well.
Dude needs to book a trip to China stat (saying this because hes apparently jealous of ishowspeed's trip to china tbh i am too)
