Single-payer healthcare isn’t radical, pro-Palestine politics is, especially in the US
So, YES, Hasan being the loudest anti-genocide voice in American media and becoming the number one target of aipac and Bibi’s lawyer does in fact make him more radical than a collection of ML forum users, who by the way were still debating a burning Israeli flag two years into the genocide, meanwhile Hasan is interviewing genocide survivors and Flotilla members
It’s genuinely wild I have to spell this shit out, material reality trumps your hypotheticals, the streamer has you beat, take the L, it’s not a contest anyway
You can claim it’s “radical” all you want, the state is not cracking down on people pushing Obamacare, again wild I have to spell this out
The state is cracking down on Pro-Palestinian advocates, almost like pro-Palestine politics IS RADICAL, hence my original comment
Also what “work” are you talking about, I’ve literally wedded my usage of the word radical to pro-Palestine politics for this thread, nobody can disagree pro-Palestine politics IS radical, but apparently the issue is me pointing out Hasan’s reach makes that radicalism (pro-Palestine politics) more meaningful than whatever the fuck this forum is doing right now
I said his reach would be meaningless WITHOUT the accompanying radicalism, but I guess that’s wild “conflation” beyond the pale and I apparently also hate homeless people now lmao
I had issues with you saying we need to conflate the two without consideration of the makeup of them
Except I did make consideration of the makeup, hence the fact I specified “Pro-Palestine politics” from the start and throughout the thread, YOU’RE the one who changed the makeup to fuckin Obamacare, and asked me “is Obama radical?”
Pro-Palestine (radicalism) + Reach (millions of viewers) = More radical than forum users
Yes, if you change the formula you’re gonna get a different answer, good thing I didn’t just say radicalism without any qualification and specified from the beginning, but that didn’t matter three comments ago, because we had to dunk even tho the dunk didn’t make any sense
Like I said in another comment to another user, One’s expression of radicalism is often ELEVATED by one’s reach, and one’s reach can be defined by one’s radicalism, that’s been my point from the start, far from being “unrelated” or even “equivalent” they interact with each other
Reach helps with the radicalization of other people, one’s personal radicalism can define HOW you use your reach, this describes Hasan Piker perfectly, I’m not saying radicalism and reach are the same thing
I’m been saying they can be linked, they can have a relationship, radicalism without any degree of reach is simply someone talking to themself, it’s still radical, but it’s not useful is it?
I’m pointing at an interaction between two things and the resulting utility and making a comparison, frankly I’m shocked how this went over so many people’s heads
It’s genuinely wild I have to spell this shit out,
It’s genuinely wild people have to spell out the definition including common use of the word radical to you, but instead of listen you insist on making up some bullshit argument in your head between materialism and idealism. True Anon also interviewed Sumud Flotilla survivors before and after their attempt to bring aid. Where do Brace Belden and Liz Franczak fit on your little “true radicals have reach while fake idealist not-radicals only house and feed a few homeless people at a time” spectrum?
It’s genuinely wild people have to spell out the definition including common use of the word radical to you
Nobody is talking about definitions, your side is upset at some “conflation” I made concerning pro-Palestine radicalism and Hasan’s reach and how that makes his radicalism more meaningful and impactful than forum users typing shit out, try to keep up with the thread
“true radicals have reach while fake idealist not-radicals only house and feed a few homeless people at a time” spectrum?
Oh, there it is, you just don’t know how to read, yeah sure, I critique someone’s over-the-top and unrealistic social expectations and suddenly that means I hate homeless people and I want them to die
Pipe down, and keep your disingenuous accusations to yourself
Pipe down, and keep your disingenuous accusations to yourself
Says the ignorant loudmouth who doesn’t understand the very basic leftist concept of radicalism but can’t stop shouting at everyone in caps how a progressive liberal streamer is more radical than unnamed indigenous MLs protecting people from ICE in the streets because the streamer is rich enough to get more people to listen to him. I can’t believe this isn’t just a really bad bit and that you’re actually serious.
I critique someone’s over-the-top and unrealistic social expectations
A critique is when you tell someone who is housing and feeding homeless people that they aren’t as radical as an internet personality Kamala Harris supporter because of “reach”
because the streamer is rich enough to get more people to listen to him
That’s why I told you to pipe down, you don’t know how to read, I didn’t say Hasan is radical because he’s rich you dogpiling dipshit; I said he’s more radical than loudmouth FORUM USERS because of his pro-Palestinian advocacy, he raised millions for Palestine, you didn’t do shit, he interviewed genocide survivors, you didn’t do shit, he platformed Samud flotilla organizers, and you just talk shit, and you want to accuse me of doing bits lmao? While you sit there trashing the loudest American voice for Palestine
So yes, that rich ass streamer is more radical than you, because radicalism requires actual praxis you ignorant assholes, and praxis has a firm relationship with reach and scale, that’s my point
Keep pretending talking on a fourm is real politics, I’m sure that’s how the revolution comes about
“The combination of radicalism AND reach…without either one…is meaningless”
Pro-Palestine (radicalism) + Reach (millions of viewers) = More radical than forum users
