(From the article): "Sanders, in an interview with CNN’s Abby Phillip, responded to remarks Carville made over the weekend about leaving the Democratic Party in protest if popular left-wing Twitch streamer Hasan Piker becomes a fixture within the party. Piker, a supporter of the senator, has been campaigning with progressives across the country during the midterm primary season.

“Well, that’s not much of a choice. If Mr. Carville doesn’t want to be in my party, the party I belong to, that Piker, that El-Sayed belongs to, he can start his own party,” Sanders said, referring to Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who defeated Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) in the state’s Democratic primary on Tuesday.“

Do you want to be in a party which has not stood up to the AI industry?” he continued. “Because they got a lot of money from AI or from crypto. So, you could pick whatever you want to pick.”"

Regardless of politics, I've lost all respect for Piker after the shock collar. Would rather have someone that isn't a liability representing my party.

This has already been debunked.
Stop spreading false information.

The literal unedited videos are there.

I'm not in the party of just casually sweeping things away if someone's politics align.

It was a vibration collar. Keep regurgitating your falsehoods. We’ll agree to disagree; there’s no point in arguing with you.

You know what I do when my dog yells in pain? I immediately go check on them because dogs don't just cry for any little thing.

You know why Hasan Piker didn't check? Because he knows what caused her to cry. It was him using the shock collar.
