My philosophy is that I personally don’t know any internet personalities, so can’t defend any actions they made unless they are complete lies. When watching the clip, it wasn’t clear Hasan didn’t shock his dog.
In the video, Hasan yelled at the dog, reached offscreen, the dog yelped, and Hasan didn’t go to help.
And I am a Hasanabi fan. I greatly appreciate the work he has done for Palestine, and leftists agenda in the west. There is a universe where Hasan didn’t shock his dog, was just annoyed at it, reached offscreen and for a seperate reason (like the dew claw getting caught), the dog yelped. But since none of us know Hasan personally, or privately, we can’t tell.
Personally, I lay on the side of not believing it, because although there is evidence that the collar was a shock collar, I have seen streams/clips where Kaya runs around freely, greeting guests etc. Either way I will continue to watch him, because I value his political analysis, but don’t freely defend strangers private lives on the internet.
It’s kind of depressing to watch so many people just embrace this kind of naked smearing of someone.
I don’t know Hasan’s work. I know Vaush, and I think he frankly sucks. In either case, I’d rather people just say, ‘Fuck that guy, I don’t like him as a person’ rather than diving into this practice of labeling everyone you don’t like as a pedo or some other flavor of sick abusive pervert. It’s gross.
Just to combat misinfo, Hasan clearly did not shock that dog
