Current affairs magazine Slate reports on the Leftist movement’s political equivalent of Joe Rogan: Hasan “Abi” Piker. Slate elaborates on Piker’s origins to the political commentary space, substantiates his trials and tribulations with becoming one of the most well known, well paid, hottest socialists, and proposes Piker’s no holds barred approach to advocating for the working class American as the Democratic Party’s new platform in wake of the humiliating 2024 General Election.
Consider reading if you aren’t familiar with Hasan! He’s opened my eyes to a world outside of Capitalism that has helped me better understand open source technologies like FOSS software, and the kinds of systems that inevitably lead to closed source technologies falling apart that serve no one, charging a fortune in return.
So is this the DNCs take away? That they didn’t get a Rogan so they lost. Because it sure feels like a bit of a media push for a left Rogan with these articles lately.
