So sad because as a kid I said to someone I might want to be a cop to try and help people and they were like uhhh that's basically what people who didn't finish high-school do. Little did I know that would be better than what we have now...

It sucks being chronically ill, but having someone there for the times you feel okay helps with the bad times. Your "hey I'm here, no pressure" is basically perfect, I'm sure they feel bad that they can't be a "good" friend in that moment but it helps knowing people will be there when they feel better.

I am not using him as a moral compass, he made an argument that something is antisemitic. If I don't care who made the argument because it's immaterial to the point of "why are the only 2 Jewish people in F tier in a video about a Jewish hummus?" Ethan is a react farmer and always has terrible arguments and was part of the gamer gate movement of just making fun of women and saying "politics(that disagree with me) bad", but that doesn't mean what he said here was wrong.

Sadly I care about the substance of someone's argument not who they are. I also do not care about either of these people. If trump made a good argument against Hasan I would post that too.

As good faith as Hasan. https://youtu.be/knMyMxXeoDY?t=36m50s this is the first mention of the tier list, Ethan says "yes, with pleasure", then says "did you see the thumbnail." What a pivot to mention it within 5 seconds of bringing it up. I do enjoy wasting everyone's time by lying when you can just look at the video. I can give you the closed captions if you missed him mentioning it within 5 seconds.

There is no Iranian woman in F tier, it is Ethan and Ben Shapiro. He also did not say that means they hate jews, he said it was antisemitic. I can be sexist without hating women, I can be racist without hating other races.

Here are some other non-jewish people that were genocide deniers: Trump (far more popular and recognizable), the change my mind guy, piers Morgan, just about every republican politician. Again, is it a coincidence they put 2 jews into F tier? Probably, but it's not insane to think that's a bit odd and question it. And again all Hasan had to do was say "I can see that but I think it's just they put him there because he's the first anti-hamas guy they thought of." But instead he says hey who knows I could never make any statement ever about it, it's insane to say it's because they're Jewish, and continues grandstanding rather than engaging with what Ethan said. You engage with it because its a conversation and to not massively waste the other persons time. You don't say uhhwhatt? Ethan are you ok? Are you hallucinating?

I don't care if they're Jewish or not, but I also don't think it's insane for someone to make that connection and say why are the 2 jews in F tier. If there were 10 worst fox news commentators ranked and the bottom 2 were the only women I would question it. Just say I'm not sure but I see where you're coming from, I think its just a coincidence. Don't tell them they're insane for thinking hmm this video about Jewish hummus put 2 jews in F tier, anyone that considers that weird is actually just insane and hallucinating, like wtf? Again I don't care if it's the editor, the president, or some random guy in a basement. They posted the video with that thumbnail, and Ethan is asking is "is this thumbnail antisemitic" and Hasan argues around it for 20 minutes rather than just saying yes I see how that could be bad. He literally says no I don't even think it was a bad coincidence, and then goes on to whataboutism.

I don't care the politics of either person, I literally do not care about either of these people. If Bernie sanders said to use coal and Trump says we need to use solar I will say Trump is correct and Bernie isn't using logic. Someone put 2 Jewish people in F tier on a hummus tier list and put the Jewish owned company's hummus in that tier. I can see that being antisemitic, I can see it just being a meme, but either way it's not an insane thing to question it, and Hasan dances around it for 10 minutes and says "well I'm not in their brain so I can't say what they meant by it." Here is the response from a normal person who is being honest: "Yes I could see how that could seem antisemitic to put 2 specifically Jewish people in F tier, but I think it was just a gaff or a joke and not meant to be antisemitic." The person making the argument is irrelevant here, if you want to say Ethan is horrible go ahead, that doesn't make Hasan correct here.

He literally said himself he doesn't care if what he says is true so long as it furthers the goals of the left, which fair enough but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

Maybe there could be something like torrents but for streaming, where by watching you're forwarding that stream to others.

For more evidence against it only affecting old people, 2 million Americans now have long covid and are essentially completely disabled and out of work because of it. For most It's 12+ hours in bed a day and having no energy to even make food, for the unlucky ones it's constant shortness of breath and other not so nice symptoms. The vaccine has been shown to prevent long covid, so any person regardless of age is taking a huge risk by not getting the vaccine.

Even I'm not terminally online enough for this but from the few things I've seen it seems like he ends up being generally ish correct, but he didn't arrive there through actual logic. ex: https://youtu.be/knMyMxXeoDY?t=37m38s

Like come on dude just say "yes maybe it's because he's Jewish and it was about hummus." I've seen him talk to other people about political things and he essentially does this same bit where he makes weird sounds and then tries to grandstand something unrelated to what the person said.

I had a pretty funny discussion where someone was like "they're bussing them in so they vote democrat!" And I was like, but they're not registered to vote. "Well the democrats want to change that." But most immigrants lean heavily republican, and are anti immigration as well, sort of a pull up the ladder behind you thing. "Well because even they know what the democrats are doing is stupid!"

And then 5 minutes later they're saying the first line, when they just agreed the exact opposite is true... it's like the facts are only true if it supports the argument that they're making at that exact instant
