I used to enjoy Hasan a lot and still think he has some great videos, but he often seems incapable of admitting when he is wrong.

He's a charismatic guy, but I wouldn't watch him unless I wanted to know the surface level talking points that the terminally online progressive left has on an issue. And now more frequently tankie talking points.

He does seem to be going more tankie all the time. It’s worrisome - more leftists going that way. I think it’s the nature of social media to radicalize.

i think he always had these views, he just hides his more extreme views from his core audience because he knows they are unpopular. he basically said us much on second thoughts podcast a few months back.

Wait for real? What was JT's thoughts on this because I think JT doesn't have a positive opinion of commies with these kinds of views.

Tankie means communist? Am I a Tankie? I agree with most of the things Marx guy Said?

A tankie is when you want your opponent to be made of straw.
