in what context? I don’t watch him so I honestly don’t k ow. The only thing I’ve seen him put his money toward was a multi million dollar home and some sorta bougie clothes.
He was the largest single donor to the Amazon Labor Union. He gave money to the anti-Israel student encampments. He did at least 2 fundraisers for Gaza aid, which raised $1 million each.
He allows strangers to monetize clips of his stream on youtube and gave youtube specific instructions to allow it.
He bought his house on a 30-year mortage and it was like $2 million in West Hollywood, which is low for that location, most of the cost of his house is the location, not the size of the house.
Something you should know about celebrities and even politicians is that they often don’t buy their own clothes. Clothing companies mail free (expensive) clothing to famous people for advertising purposes. A lot of people mail Hasan a lot of free shit because they like him. He used to do a segment on stream where he would open stuff that people mailed to him.
Also he doesn’t do investing, capital gains, usury, etc. He doesn’t hire employees. He doesn’t do wage labor value extraction.
By voting for Kamala in a state she was never going to lose, even though the PSL candidates were on the ballot?
But seriously though, I don’t really mind the guy, but the breathless defense some people put up for him even here on hexbear does leave me a little puzzled.
He recently tried out streaming on YT when Twitch banned him for a few days and he donated all of the YT money to The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA). It was a total of $18,000.
The multi-million dollar home thing that his opponents like to throw around is a bit exaggerated. The man lives in LA. Homes there are astronomically more expensive than most places.
Multimillion and its 2.7 mil? Thats a normal family home in Cali unfortunately. I know its an accurate description of the price but the home is not big and luxurious
the big house thing is really a non sequitur. socialism isn’t a poverty cult, its about the relationship to the means of the production. Hasan may be rich but he isn’t extracting surplus labor like a bourgeois parasite. It’s the same with the lucky actors and athletes who become famous and make millions. As far as I am concerned he can do whatever he wants with his money that he earned as long as it isn’t investing in exploitation

Also all his production team is a coop of which he’s part, and all his merch is made by a coop
His production is a coop right? Why would they also form a union?
Sorry, wrong word, English ain’t my first language. Thanks for the correction
Is that the merch sold on Shopify?

Being a leftist means you need to live on the street, but if you do, it means you’re a jealous and lazy person.
It’s a 2.71 million dollar home.
3.8k sq foot.
Five bedroom. Five and a half bath.
What is being exaggerated, really? Ill be honest, I don’t really care one way or the other but its a bit much. my opinion doesn’t matter tho.
The average cost for a 4k sq ft home in LA is around that much actually. He also lives with family, he’s not taking up all that space on his own.
IDK this really sounds like the “you hate capitalism yet you own an iPhone? Curious” types.

ITT: a lot of excuses
“I dont understand the housing nightmare in california and would prefer people stay homeless or move away rather than house themselves”
People are being kind enough to explain things to you, try to keep up
