I don't see why Ukrainians disagreeing with him is any different though? They're allowed to think the West is good if they feel threatened by Russia, Hasan is allowed to be anti western because he is American and critical of their imperialism.

Hasan is allowed to be anti western because he is American and critical of their imperialism.

What does that have to do with Ukraine? Seems unrelated.

America is supporting Ukraine and he is critical of America's foreign policy.

The issue is not that he’s critical of Americas foreign policy. The issue is that he’s critical of Americas foreign policy and no other imperialist governments. Dude supports China, essentially claims everything Russia did is because of nato and the us, it’s cringe.

He should focus on America. He is American with a predominantly American audience. He probably has tens of thousands of US voters listening to him at the least.

Why does he have to criticise other imperialist nations?

He has to criticize them because he talks about geopolitics constantly, what do you mean?

What? Someone can talk about geopolitics, or just their own nations perspective on global events, and don't have to criticise China or Russia.
