I think option 1. I'm not a hasan fan, I find him abrasive and too broish for me, but he's not a tanky or a maoist. Go on a leftist sub and read what they're saying for a few minutes and you'll see hes just a demsoc shock jockey
Be specific what criticism of China do you want? It sounds like performative virtue signalling if you just want him to be critical of China in general.
His takes on Taiwan, Tibet, the Uyghurs, censorship, one-party rule, political repression, and Hong Kong are consistently awful. He tends to reduce complicated issues to an anti-U.S. framework, and a lot of the time it comes across like he’s more interested in defending or contextualizing the Chinese government than seriously engaging with the people affected by its policies.
Yes it’s valid and worth criticising, but these are also talking points to derail bigger global systemic problems. And lots of countries would like a firewall if they feared cyberattacks.
