    I wish people cared as much about what politicians had to say as nepo twitch streamers who claim to be communist while streaming from a literal West Hollywood mansion…

      What’s funny is that his house has actually been leaked and it’s not a mansion so much a product of insane runaway housing costs making relatively simple houses insanely expensive in specific locations.

      Raise your standards.

        Raise your standards.

        I’d love for my standards to be a “normal house” worth over a million dollars…

        But my uncle didn’t start a giant media company and name it after genocide a to hand me a platform…

        But to be honest I probably would have turned it down and wouldn’t have been interning for him in the first place

          I like this idea that The Young Turks exists as a vehicle for Hasan almost exclusively.

          This ignores the year(s) where he streamed games to an audience of 30 people after he quit TYT.

          And to be clear, your standards are referring to a normal house as a mansion. Capitalism has robbed you of being able to imagine even normal things as anything but unreachable Luxury. And your weird sense of Socialism has convinced you that poverty is the only virtue that proves your Convictions. Both of these things are lies you’ve swallowed from a class of people who are waiting for you to pass out in their warehouse and die so they can stop hearing your whining.

            Normal houses should stop being treated like speculative investments…

            But how do we prevent that?
