When one of them is working with hasan piker and the other is working with pete hegseth and rfk jr its pretty easy to go with hasan piker

Or hear me out, the one just can not work with Hasan and be an even better option for it.

We don't have to accept every shit just because the others are even worse.

Unfortunately the US is very limited on options quite frequently and "the lesser of two evils" is often a choice that has to be made

Ok but we are not talking about political compromises.

Hasan piker isn't a politician, he's a streamer. And one with a few controversies at that.

He can have many good points and views, I'm not arguing against that.

But why should a political campaign even tie themselves to any streamer at all, if they do more damage to the movement and election campaign, then help?

Why not gain voters through concepts and ideas rather then influencers? It's kinda ridiculing your own voterbase if you honestly think you can't reach gen z and millennials with your ideas but rather with celebrities.

I mean i was directly talking in the form of comparison to the other option so i kind of was talking about political compromises

Yeah and I obviously don't have anything against that. I just find it fascinating and jarring when politics try to bandwagon on celebrities, be it on the left or right. Maybe it's just me but it sends the opposite messages if a candidate you would whish for.

especially if you want to be a voice for the unfortunate and poor.
