    Hasan Piker seems to me to be a generational talent

    No, he was the nepo nephew of The Young Turks founder…

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_genocide

    A media organization literally named after people who overthrew their government to commit a genocide…

    His uncle put him on air, then bankrolled him into the early days of twitch.

    He is not grassroots, he did not got popular because of talent or political opinions.

    He is an outrage machine and rather than complain about literal fascists running our country and supporting genocides worldwide, he uses his platform to make people not want to vote for the literal only option in our political system

    At best he’s a narcissist that just wants views, at worst he’s intentionally trying to prevent progress.

    Fucking think for yourself and stop repeating twitch streamers.

      I guess I don’t understand why the name Young Turks is supposed to be automatically disqualifying or something? Ana is Armenian herself. If that was so disqualifying, you’d think she would be noping out or calling for a name change?
