HasanAbi Axios Interview Destiny Reaction
by Silvestre: Hasan Piker
The public expectation that Republican media would unleash wall-to-wall annihilation with crazy clips of Hasan immediately after the primary was a known variable, yet Destiny points out nobody covered this angle on the liberal side until Republicans got their hands on it. When responding to criticism from Piker regarding Hasan and his son, the focus shifts to how much opponents overuse the word productive while being the ones incapable of having an intelligent conversation on anything or refusing to engage in a challenging conversation. Instead they just build and destroy strawmen on stream over and over again without ever managing to do it properly. There is a specific scenario where someone fact-checks a poll with a phone only to find the poll incorrect after being pushed on it, and cleaning that up is called a puff piece or propaganda that you would never expect unless you are on an incredibly friendly platform helping you do PR by making favorable edits in an interview to look better. The only reason for pulling the phone out is because he asked about it directly. Destiny clarifies they did not pull out an iPad to fact check but had notes on it during what was a five-and-a-half-hour intensive debate, stating they have no problem bringing notes to a debate like this and asking what that has to do with anything at all when every single problem in their life can be explained by the Jews or Destiny as a thought-terminating excuse. During a challenging interview there was a pivot to discussing a fifteen-year-old from a live stream because getting a semi-challenging interview meant having to talk about that instead. Jake Tapper and Dana Bash are not well equipped in real time compared to Hasan who is the master of navigating real-time challenging conversations. There is also the joke about Donald Trump's nickname for Hasan being Handsome Hassy leading to a self-deprecating comment about Big D Destiny having the biggest D right guys. Opponents always expose hypocrisy rather than defending positions or principles because you can never defend a position on your own since you have no principles or values, so it is all about them being hypocritical and it is not fair when they do it, ending with the question if Dan Saltman is now a friend of Hasan. #HasanPiker
