Because this post is about Hasan Piker, it includes a lot of NSFW content. He uses the F-Bomb in the way that normal human beings say “um.”
Hasan Piker is now a key part of the Democratic Party conversation, and many Democrats are flocking to him. You should consider reading and watching these videos anyway. Democratic Party candidates and influencers are embracing him, to the horror of many people, including some Democrats. Article follows:
The Democrats are having a massive debate about whether Hasan Piker is an ally they should embrace. Piker, who is an avowed Marxist who believes that America deserved 9/11, that Hamas is “1000 times better than Israel,” that it was unfortunate that America won the Cold War, that China is the closest to an ideal society we have, and that capitalist blood should be running through the streets, has become the hot new thing among progressives.
Anti-capitalist Zohran Mamdani is tight with his buddy Hasan Piker who thinks this about property owners who don’t rent:

The New York Times has not only profiled him; it gave him space on its pages to serve as an analyst. He is showing up on CNN and other networks, and progressives are flocking to his podcast or even campaigning with him as a surrogate.
There’s a growing group of Democrats actively campaigning with and catering to a terror sympathizer who said America deserved 9/11. https://t.co/YARWub1qwR

Piker is the progressive Nick Fuentes. In fact, they admire some of the same people, for the same reasons. They are united in the belief that Liberal Democracy is a failed system that must be torn down, and they even share the same misogynist views. The big difference is that Piker is Muslim, and Fuentes claims to be a Christian.
Jennifer Welch on Hasan Piker: “The people who lose these Democratic campaigns and they think they can say on the one hand we need a Joe Rogan of the left and then you have this guy who always platforms universal human rights, he is not an anti-semite, he will not leave one group… pic.twitter.com/yydgTsL9tx

Jennifer Welch on Hasan Piker: “The people who lose these Democratic campaigns and they think they can say on the one hand we need a Joe Rogan of the left and then you have this guy who always platforms universal human rights, he is not an anti-semite, he will not leave one group aside. He has a massive network of engaging young men away from this horrific Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan. Hasan is the antidote to that”
The left thinks that Piker is Joe Rogan, but only because they have never watched Joe Rogan. Rogan is quirky, genuinely curious, and has long involved conversations with people, not rage-fests. Hasan Piker is about nothing but rage, killing people, and communism. He explicitly and often says he hates America, and often talks about who should be eliminated.
And while Piker has a huge audience, he is actually not the path to the youth vote, as Democrats seem to think. His followers are rabid and number in the millions, but they are also revolutionaries who are about as skeptical of Democrats as Republicans.

As is so popular these days on the two political extremes, his obsession is the Joos. It is hip to love the Islamists and hate the Jews, and Piker has a natural place as a leader of that parade. He is a Turkish immigrant with a wealthy family, which explains his affinity for Zohran Mamdani, and came to America to make it big by…hating America.
2/ He also operates in this hermetically-sealed-from-reality lefty online world where it’s considered some sort of forbidden truth that… China has been economically prosperous? That it has very impressive infrastructure? Ah yes, very under-covered stories.

It tells you a lot that his audience, which should be niche, is seen as a key voting bloc for Democrats these days. He is a featured speaker alongside old Obama hands at Democrat events, and was a rock star at the DNC convention.

One of his most avid supporters these days is Tim Miller of The Bulwark, who has been raving—that’s not too strong a word, given that he has taken to the microphone to lecture NeverTrumpers hysterically about how Hasan Piker belongs in the “big tent.”
Why denounce a communist anti-semite who calls for revolution with the blood and guts of capitalists in the streets?
The defenses of keeping Piker in the “big tent“ are remarkably similar to the arguments on the right about keeping Nick Fuentes in that “big tent“ https://t.co/2g7Lma1bMw

What’s initially bizarre is that all these people left the Republican Party in a huff because Trump is too declassé for their tastes. He says crude things, isn’t internationalist enough, is too “authoritarian.”
So they are rushing to embrace a man who embraces terrorism and thinks China is the model society.

This is “conserving conservatism.” You can’t make it up.
BREAKING: Senator Fetterman slams members of the Democrat party for associating with Hasan Piker.

Of course, not everybody on the left has embraced Piker. There is some dissent. Just as there is a diminishing faction among the Democrats who don’t embrace The Squad and see them as a liability, there are still some who blanche at embracing Piker.
Sarah Longwell, quoting Hasan Piker, on Dan Crenshaw’s lost eye: “Didn’t he go to war and like literally lose his eye because some mujahideen–a brave fucking soldier–fucked his eye-hole with his dick?” We’re blaming 2028 contenders for not associating with this. https://t.co/Curso7GV2O

Those people are currently losing the fight. After the 2024 election, the Democrats had a chance to reject insanity, and a few tried. They got slapped down and pushed back into line.
Since we’re being forced to do more Hasan Piker discourse, I just need you to watch the greatest Hasan video ever published.
Featuring: “Fuck you old lady. Shut the fuck up you stupid fucking idiotic old lady.”
“Suck my dick old lady.”

You have Democrats like John Fetterman and Rahm Emmanuel who are appalled at what their party is becoming and doing their best to bring it back from the edge, but they are putting their fingers into a crumbling dike to hold back the waters.

In 2025, the big winners with Democrats were socialists, who took over the mayor’s offices of two major US cities, including New York City. They already own Chicago and Los Angeles, as well as Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Some of the most prominent members of Congress are radical socialists, and in Maine, the candidate for Senate called himself a Marxist while sporting a Nazi tattoo on his chest.

There is actually little that is ideological in this movement, as cozy as it is with communism. What holds people like Tim Miller and Hasan Piker is pure rage. The commitment to destroy an America they see as having betrayed them. Miller was the Communications Director for Jeb Bush, and Hasan Piker is a literal communist revolutionary who allies with Hamas and is supporting Iran in the current war.

They are bound together by HATE. Pure hate. Rage beyond measure, which is the brand of the Democratic Party right now.
Yes. Winning elections is so important that Democrats like Khanna can just ignore that the Hasan Pikers of the world can declare that the U.S. deserved 9/11 and engages in antisemitism because – well- at least he reaches a large far-left audience. What a joke. https://t.co/vI38PtmhqY

Both parties have some house cleaning to do. Tucker, Candace, and Megyn Kelly have gone off the rails and have been bleeding mainstream Republican support while picking up the Nick Fuentes crowd, who was never part of the coalition.
Democrats, though, are falling all over themselves to embrace Piker, seeing his audience as the next big thing.
TDS is a powerful drug.
