Yeah I think we should be critical of him, or at a minimum understand where here sits in the landscape of political thought. I can’t put all the causality on Hasan for my radicalization, but he contributed, same with Sanders, as well as his betrayal at the hands of the Democrats. I needed to hear Sander’s perspective and also see him cut down. Much in the same way that I’m sure my SO needed to hear Hasan and seem him get evicted by the Democrats.
Were all at different stages of our own radicalization. All these figures and events have a role to play in that process.
If I’m growing beyond Hasan’s positions I don’t doubt others are too. We should strive to help others grow in the same way. If there is one thing me and Hasan agree on is that people can change, if they couldn’t, then Leninism would have failed over and over again.
Ok we’re def on the same page. I truly hope you’re right about Hasan watchers growing past him
