Hasan is a man baby who is incapable of feeling shame or evaluating himself critically in any way. Any time he approaches those feelings he simply lashes out in anger, “I couldn’t possibly be suffering the consequences of my actions, it must be the world that’s wrong!” He views himself as the main character of life, and anyone who doesn’t share that view must be stupid, jealous, or a nazi.
To most people that mindset comes across as ridiculous and immature, but Hasan is the product of a very unique environment. He grew up a spoiled rich kid where the only expectation placed on him was that he would graduate from college, after which he was immediately provided a job through nepotism. He’s also a stereotypical frat bro who has likely never had to deal with rejection or bullying on any real level, despite what he may claim. Now he gets paid millions a year to sit around watching reality tv and occasionally saying “capitalism bad.”
I’ve met a handful of people who grew up under similar circumstances and probably could have ended up like Hassan, but they at least didn’t have a massive fan base boosting their already giant ego even further. The women who watch him aren’t even paying attention to what he’s saying and the teenage boys who watch have to excuse anything he says because they live vicariously through him. Combine all of these factors together and you end up with someone who’s so far removed from reality they can’t even comprehend how the average person thinks or sees the world.
