Wild/scary how easily people latched on to collar gate. Or just shows how much people are targeting hasan.

Especially considering this ban is as dumb as when they banned him for cracker or the Rick Scott stuff. Silly him should have just been like the other big streamers and only say terrible things about Muslims or immigrants

Better start looking or setting up new platforms now, they are all going to get censored for the regime. The corpos love Donny too.

Common L Twitch.

Ban was for 7 days, and Hasan appealed it to 3 days after taking a quiz.

In the meantime, he streamed on YouTube for the first time in like 7 years, had 140k viewers at the peak, and made a TON of money from super chats, all while being able to stream his regular news coverage AND attend the ICE Out of LA protest in solidarity.

Israel dick riders really got him good.

The only times Hasan has been banned from Twitch was for insulting racist white people. And they say he's doing hate speech. Pathetic.

He's livestreaming on YouTube at the time of this comment posting. I like it better on YouTube than twitch personally because YouTube Vanced is OP. But the comments aren't working.

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 weeks ago

I checked and Youtube vanced comments are working for me. Maybe you need to patch it with a new apk.

THAT GOT HIM BANNED??? NOT THE ANIMAL ABUSE??

I'm not sure it was ever bunked if I'm honest.

His dog yelped while Hasan's hands were off screen? That's a homeopathic level of evidence.

Hate the dude because you disagree with him (or are jealous of his looks or some shit), but the animal abuse stuff is so fucking dumb

[-] lennee@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

looks like an animal abuser to me

[-] Yesbutnotquite@lemmy.world 47 points 3 weeks ago

What makes someone look like an animal abuser to you?

[-] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 24 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Well, being on video committing animal abuse, for one.

Have you ever had a dog (specifically a large breed) before?

Edit: fuck shock collars, btw. Hope the implication here is not that big dogs need them. See my reply below.

[-] SarahValentine 18 points 3 weeks ago

If your next point is that a shock collar is necessary to train a large dog, first of all you're wrong about that. But let's say it is. Do you think it's ethical to "train" the dog to sit in the same spot on camera for hours on end, for streamer content? Because you'd be wrong there too. There is no defending Hasan's treatment of his dog.

[-] Chronographs@lemmy.zip 26 points 3 weeks ago

It’s not a fucking shock collar anyways he literally showed the model and everything.

I don't watch Hasan but I'm smart enough to see when whingy, bad-faith hate-watchers are attempting to blow something dumb out of proportion to get naive people to go "ANIMAL ABUSE" as a huge distraction from actual issues.

As long as our population keeps getting distracted and bickering about bullshit like this, we will never unify and have community again.

He never abused his dog, Kaya. No one have ever presented evidence that he shocked her.

Instead, idiots like you continue to spout misinformation because certain parties want to destroy Hasan's character as he's gaining national notoriety.

Watch his streams. See how much Kaya loves him. Then ask yourself if he's a dog abuser, and that abused dogs would do what Kaya does on a daily basis

Streamers should have an owncast as a back up

What do you expect from using corpo-fascist infrastructure?

You can make so much money defending the use of watch lists to track anti-Israel protestors in the US.

It doesn't say much about watch lists but it does say a lot about what it takes to become wealthy.
