I generally have no faith in public personalities to hold any convictions at all, so it has been refreshing for Hasan to adhere to his position against voting for Gruesome Newscum. I don't at all mean to imply that he's perfect, or that people should look to him as a leader in any respect, it's just nice to see something like that happening and getting broad exposure. Feels good.

I don't think anyone here is getting any fraction of their opinion from that douchebag. People here don't like Hasan because he's not a good representation of MList thought.

They're not getting it directly but they are influenced by him indirectly

The fact so many here fell for that shock collar smear campaign proved that once and for all, not to mention those times multiple users used r/LSF has a source for their anti-Hasan takes

He explicitly does this on purpose though. The average lib is too far propagandized to become ML directly and they need a slower progressio. Hasan has explicitly said in The Deprogram podcast that he's the funnel to the communist pipeline.

I'm not saying I don't agree with his approach, I was figuring why Hexbears might not like Hasan.

Oh, you meant Destiny by douchebag, gotcha!
