    And thats the issue.

    People generalize everything. So when people are acting like Hasan has a valid point when he is a literal Young Turks reject? Now everyone thinks left leaning people online believe that s***. Man is doing streams with AOC

    Unless your goal is just to piss off white people online, you aren't arguing about something like this.

    Like if I wanna piss someone off, you think a word being a slur is gonna stop me? F***, I don't even call white people crackers, I call them cacs and make mayo jokes among friends.

    But thats behind the doors s***. Imagine pretending to be a twitch political commentator and fueling this right wing insanity by just needlessly arguing that you should antagonize white people to your audience of 30k???

    People like Hasan are just running the outrage counter for clicks and Bezos bucks.

    Yes Hassan seems like a clueless hack. A left wing Tim Pool just based on the youtube clips I've dared to click on. Personally my problem is more with Twitch's all over the place enforcement policies but I wish it didn't look like I was a Hassan fan

    Honky is such a funny word

    If the slur in question was m*ck instead of cracker Hasan probably would have been rewarded

    Again dehumanization is not an abstract thing, it's not dehumanizing to be called an oppressor, it is dehumanizing to literally not be seen as a human or equal to what you deem to be the "superior race"

    But anyway when somebody is being racist, that's totally justified bc I would say that's pretty reprehensible no?

    Is it a d*** move to call random people cracker for no reason? Yeah id say so

    It’s super sus of you to be defending racial slurs in general

    You do know people are going to inaccurately throw this slur at white people who they only “perceive” this way

    very weird, this is like saying it’s okay to call a black dude the n word if he’s a pedophile

    Nah I agree, Twitch is bad at moderation. Their was the whole hot tub s*** and that was CRAZY

    I get annoyed just seeing Hasan, not even because of his takes. It's the nepotism, I have a sub to NYTimes and bro had a NYTimes writer he was friends with on. Later, she does an article about him and his twitch. (It wasn't even related to their talk)

    Bro is only on twitch because he messed up a debate with Charlie Kirk. S*** is really the definition of failing upward and ngl, that disgusts me

    No it's not lmfao becaus the n word is used to oppress black people, a black person being a f***ed up individual does not make it okay to do that all of a sudden

    The word cracker, even looking at the etymology, signifies oppression under white supremacy, so it's actually relevant when a white person is being racist

    If anything you making that equation is sus

    ”Crackers were poor white folk who lived in the south during the antebellum era. Given their name because of their staple diet of crack-corn, crackers were often hired by plantation owners in order to replace a slave in dangerous jobs. The high prices of slaves during the 1830s and 40s made It efficient to use a cracker rather than a slave. If a planter lost or injured a slave he would be pressed to buy another slave, but if the cracker got injured or died, finacially, the planter would have been unaffected. Crackers had a very low standard of living. Many of them lived in forests and dug holes in the ground to live in. despite their living conditions and their social status, crackers stilled believed they were better than the african slaves. Today, cracker is often used as a derogatory term for a white person for obvious reasons. It implies a person who lives in the utmost worst conditions and a person who no one really cares about.”

    Just because it doesn’t have the weight and impact as some of the most deplorable racial slurs in existence does not mean that it is okay to call people slurs based off their race, sex, gender, sexual orientation, etc. you f***ing weirdo. Go dunk your head in a toilet and flush it you sub human waste of space.

    WHITE ARENT OPRESSED or ever was

    this is horrible argument

    it’s basically saying

    “a subset of a group of a group of people did horrible things so anyone related to that subset automatically deserves to be made fun of and shamed just because”

    that’s like saying if someone’s dad is a murderer, their whole family should be shamed and ridiculed the rest of their lives, generations after generations. even if those family members have no connection or idea who they were
