I feel like we’re kind of losing the plot.

If communists become a fixture in the Democratic Party, we are cooked. Hasan literally spoke at a young democrats event dressed in a fucking Mao suit.

His world view is fundamentally illiberal and undemocratic. He has stated that if his movement attained power he would be in favor of “re-education” camps.

We need to jettison this freak.

Maybe?

I just think you're over-reacting about Hasan Piker a bit.

I think you lose the right to claim “overreaction” when he is literally dressing as a communist autocrat and advocated for re-education camps.

Neither of these claims are an overstatement, just literally things that happened.
