Let me assure you I am not a conservative and also align with progressive or lefty ideals. Don't mistake criticism of lefty twitch streamers as a convenient reason to box in reasonable discourse.

Saying Palestinians have a right to self defense is a fine statement. Farming faux outrage day after day by exploiting the suffering of victims of genocide to farm clicks: not so much.

Let me assure you, Hassan has no interest in seeing an end to any of the ongoing conflicts in the world. This is evidenced by the way he condones and encourages the visceral rhetoric aimed at any party that is seeking reconciliation of any sort.

Outrage == clicks
