HASAN CHATTER: “but people like Platner are the same people who killed almost 200 little girls in an Iranian school”
HASAN PIKER: “I don’t care”
I'm kind of done listening to people tell me what Hasan said because they're always just making shit up.
That being said, anyone actually watch the 10 min clip and hear what he actually said? I mean literally someone tell me because I also cannot be bothered to listen to it.
He specifically does not say "don't start a 3rd party" or "work to change the Democrats from the inside" in this clip.
What he says is "there is an opportunity to reach people using the Democratic Party apparatus" and likens it to a megaphone.
i've not watched this clip but i have heard him talk about it before and his most reasonable point is that ballot access is a huge hurdle. I disagree that entryism follows instead of not engaging in electoral politics but I do think his position requires him to endorse entryism.
