He certainly is a product of a unique environment. How many people have an uncle with a popular, online news show who uses his platform to defend his nephew’s actions? No wonder Hasan is so incredibly entitled and reacts poorly to criticism and consequences.
Oh, he reacts poorly to criticism alright. Last time this shit happened, Cenk tried to actually
scold his newphew's actions, and Hasan didn't give a solitary fuck.
Note how sorry he is from that video.
I think judging by how
that went, Cenk isn't inclined to offer much more than a limp wristed defense on Twitter now.
There are countless examples in all forms of sports and entertainment, where someone that made a shit load of money for an entity got shitcanned because they became too hot for sponsors or just became too much of a pain in the ass to deal with.
Yes, but I don't think Twitch is at risk for losing sponsors over Hasan saying cracker. Otherwise they would have come down much harder.
Keep in mind, the Twitch user with the biggest followers right now is... believe it or not... Olivia Ocasio Cortez.
It is a silly place over there. I think they're giving him a seven day ban simply because they don't want to be arsed to try and make the absurd argument that cracker isn't a racist term.
That's not to say he
couldn't push it too far. Like, if he drops an N bomb, then he might very well be looking at a different situation.
Anybody can get canceled today.
True enough, but even accounting for the fact they always eat their own, they've got far bigger morsels to eat before they get to Hasan. Thus far he's acted like a retard "within bounds." Being racist against whitey is a-okay.
That's why I said I think Cenk is gonna get canceled outright before Hasan does. If for no other reason than he's a much bigger target, and they can reason they can reason it'll make TYT even more "pure." Hell, they'll probably want Anna in charge.
