Although I have not watched a lot of Hasan videos , I think he is not actually leftist ! He is liberal at best , posing to be leftist ?
Maybe veering a bit off-topic here, but what does he do? I mean, what does a streamer actually do aside from play games on stream? Does he like talk about politics while gaming, or do people just tune in to hear him speak randomly? I’m getting old.
He streams on average like 12 hours a day, almost 7 days a week. The majority is news coverage from a left perspective, mostly US News, sometimes he will play currently trending games he’s interested in once news is done, or do react content be it political or something else.
He’s recently live streamed his participation in the SAG/AFTRA strike with Adam Conover, and had several strikers on stream (including Adam) to talk about the strike. He had the Union leader for the Amazon Labor Union on not long after they won their union.
He’s definitely a “personality”. Some show up for the news, some only show up for the games, some show up because he’s a himbo. They all end up exposed to a left perspective at some point. He averages 30K concurrent viewers, as high as 60K to 100K if something big is happening in the news. So he has a good amount of reach. Not everyone there shares his world view, but more then 0 percent do get their views changed.
Interesting. I wonder how people get to that point, you know? Nobody would tune in to watch Mr. Joaomarrom rambling on twitch. What does it take to make people want to hear what I have to say, to the point where they’re actively giving me money for my opinions?
I suppose the same could be asked about any podcast or any public figure. Man I wish people would just pay to watch me speak to the computer.
