What a bizarre response. Nowhere did I claim that he’s an organizer. Public political speech by a prominent political broadcast commentator (yea that’s what “viral streaming influencer” used to be called in the 1900s) is …not nothing. Saying he isn’t doing anything is like saying that political speech doesn’t do anything.
Edit: you added the champagne socialist bit. Do I look like I care about this guy personally? He’s an influential political commentator that made a good point. In this thread it drew reactions from the “blu no matter whu” crowd and I called that out. That’s it.
You’re judging his internal state of mind and disposition. I don’t give a flipping fuck about it right now. Even if he is just a champagne socialist virtue signaling, the objectively observable thing is “popular influencer is putting a political blackmail of the dem establishment in the discourse agenda”. Even under your set of assumptions his champaign socialist virtue signaling is not without real political impact.
I mean fuck, an even shallower piece of nothing is sitting in the white house and his vapid brainfarts are for sure creating political impacts.
There’s a weird cult around hating this one guy specifically, and people just cannot help but tell on themselves whenever he’s mentioned. It’s pathetic.
Piker isn’t doing anything. If you think what Hasan, the textbook champagne socialist does is political action, that explains a lot.

He isn’t doing any kind of politics. He’s virtue-signaling.
My sibling in christ, even virtue signaling is a kind of politics.

The passive aggressive “explains much” angle you have now repeated twice is kind of weird.
