This guy’s dad is the former VP of a multibillion dollar Turkish conglomerate, as well as the secretary of a government department. Mom and Dad were able to fly to their other home in NJ to give birth so he’d get US citizenship. His uncle is the founder and owner of TYT Media and gave him his media career. He went to Rutgers. He lives in a multimillion dollar mansion in the Hollywood Hills. This is by definition not the kind of person who can be a voice of the People. Saying “I recognize my privilege” over and over, while living his lifestyle, doesn’t negate his privilege and complete lack of real-life experience outside of the curated garden of the wealthy. He gets paid obscene amounts of cash to sit in his bedroom and word-vomit for 9 hours a day. Why are his unending opinions taken so seriously? He gives me strong controlled opposition vibes.

      He calls himself a "socialist " a “revolutionary” a “man of the people” despite being born into obscene wealth and having nothing in common with “the people.” This is the guy who said, “America deserved 9/11” and has no problems with “imperialism” if it comes from China.

      Of course, you don’t have to take my word on any of this. There are plenty of examples of Hassan on YouTube, being a complete dick.
