"is that ham processed? If it's processed I don't want it" Ma'am, that is an eleven pound whole slab of deli ham. It has no bones, fat, or connective tissue. It is an amalgamation of the meat of several pigs, emulsified, liquefied, strained, and ultimately inexorably joined in an unholy meat obelisk. God had no hand in the creation of this abhorrence. The fact that this ham monolith exists proves that God is either impotent to alter His universe or ignorant to the horrors taking place in his kingdom. This prism of pork is more than deli meat. It is a physical declaration of mankind's contempt for the natural order. It is hubris manifest. We also have a lower sodium variety if you would prefer that.

This is before Larry/David Ellison have taken control of CNN. Ellisons bought Warner Bros which owns CNN, so it's going to get even worse.

He has a bachelor's degree in political science from Rutgers University, including studied Marxism at University. He interned at his uncle's new company 'The Young Turks. Then he started streaming on facebook to try to gain an independent following. It was Felix Biederman of Chapo Trap House who convinced him to start streaming on twitch. Chapo promoted Hasan before he was famous on twitch and Felix would stream fortnite with Hasan. His following initially exploded during the 2020 BLM protests.

Hasan has often credited his success to being inspired by Michael Brooks, who unexpectedly died in 2020. He often quotes Michael Brooks saying 'be kind to people, be ruthless to systems'. I think this principle is what makes him popular. He explains politics to people in simple terms and he doesn't act like he's better than you. He doesn't tell people that he's the furthest left person to ever live. He doesn't pretend like he's going to lead the revolution. He goes outside; he talks to people on their level; he explains socialism in ways that are easy to understand.

There seems to be a misconception that Marxism needs to be draped in esotericism. Some people feel as though they accomplished something great just by having discovered Marxism and express great importance of their own thoughts. The point of Marxism is to apply the Marxism to the real world. If you want to be popular, you have to go outside, talk to people on their own level, and explain your goals in ways that are easy to understand. If you want to be unpopular, don't go outside, express a sense of superiority to the people you interact with, and speak with shibboleths.

The account also confuses a lot of people because there is a very good french news agency called AFP (Agence France-Presse).

He was the largest single donor to the Amazon Labor Union. He gave money to the anti-Israel student encampments. He did at least 2 fundraisers for Gaza aid, which raised $1 million each.

He allows strangers to monetize clips of his stream on youtube and gave youtube specific instructions to allow it.

He bought his house on a 30-year mortage and it was like $2 million in West Hollywood, which is low for that location, most of the cost of his house is the location, not the size of the house.

Something you should know about celebrities and even politicians is that they often don't buy their own clothes. Clothing companies mail free (expensive) clothing to famous people for advertising purposes. A lot of people mail Hasan a lot of free shit because they like him. He used to do a segment on stream where he would open stuff that people mailed to him.

Also he doesn't do investing, capital gains, usury, etc. He doesn't hire employees. He doesn't do wage labor value extraction.

I think Jeremy Scahill knows the reason why Israel is doing censorship. He wants CNN to say it. He's pointing out hypocrisy.

Ecuador Declares Cuban Diplomatic Mission Persona Non Grata

Quito, March 4 (Prensa Latina) Ecuador today declared the Cuban ambassador to Quito, Basilio Gutiérrez, and all diplomatic personnel of that mission persona non grata, giving them 48 hours to leave the country.

March 4, 2026 | 2:34 PM

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Human Mobility, through its Directorate of Ceremonial and Protocol, notified the Embassy of the Republic of Cuba in Ecuador that the decision was adopted in accordance with Article 9 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.

The measure applies to Ambassador Gutiérrez and all members of the diplomatic, consular, and administrative staff accredited in Quito.

The notification, which is circulating on social media, does not mention the reasons for the declaration or whether it will imply a break in diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The Ecuadorian Foreign Ministry indicated that it would provide more information on the matter later Wednesday afternoon.
