This is a massive L for Hasan and he's gotta own up to it but when were the chapo boys doing anything to support this piece of shit or his campaign?

All they've done is make fun of what a weird chud this guy is, they were literally calling him a "wokeremoved" even before this came out due to his reddit comments about how he fantasized about SAing a hypothetical burglar who broke into his home and how he explained in said comments that he isn't gay becauseremoved is about power

Maybe it wasn't the most principled leftist criticism of this war criminal piece of shit but it sure as hell wasn't an endorsement

Will endorsed him. Iirc Felix said getting a nazi tattoo is disqualifying. Because either you're a nazi or you're not smart enough to hold office.

Rare display of common sense by Felix

CTH downplayed criticism of him being a blackwater merc and having a nazi tattoo, they definitely had a "I don't give a shit about these issues and neither should you, hold the line and vote progressive" subtext

Will said "If I lived in Maine I would still vote for him."

I can imagine if someone wanted to hear what they want to hear, they might point out that they're shitting on him plenty. But if you listen to this critically, you will notice it's mostly excuses. They seem completely unbothered by that guy's platform, saying it is they're "cool with it", despite Platner's platform being liberal Hitler.
