    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
