Wait Hakim makes a ton off patreon?

That said, I don't really watch his stuff these days but he always seemed amicable enough. I don't necessarily dislike him.

>>2571238
>/leftypol/
Much like Hasan, he has 12 people here who like him but are an outspoken minority, while the majority don't care or dislike him, the difference is that he hasn't hit the same lows as Hasan to make those 12 people shut up, yet.

>>2571183

1. its is fake, he is using a VPN to alter account based location
2. communists does not care about being a miserable or a vow of poverty
3. you is a retard which most of MLs wont take you seriously for falling for reactionary made up slander

>>2571246
I don't care what retarded namefags have to say (I filter them on sight) but I'd wager that most people on this site lean positive on hasan
the outspoken haters are the minority if anything

>>2571246
You quite literally don't know what the word grifter means.

>>2571267
Lol
>>2571274
Lol
Proving my point.
Anyway I would start praying to Allah no one ever doxes Hakim successfully.
As for Hasan I don't even have to say much else, even if you don't think he's an animal abuser the guy is a clown and a sell out, but if BE covering his sell out moments and archives of him being a nepo baby who started as a redpill grifter before he became a leftist grifter don't convince you, I can't say much else.
Stay delulu

>>2571282
Proving what? Proving that you come from an external hasanhating community probably some lib streamer or straight-up kiwifarms because you are going down their whole talking point list? Be more subtle next time.

>>2571287

Your boy is literally a Democrat spokesman now and previously platformed a neo Nazi who did literal neo colonialism in the middle east as a merc, keep coping e celeb dick rider.

hello, based department?

>>2571290
Oh yeah this faggot and Androgenic.
I'm 100% convinced these guys are pharma shills.
They didn't get surgery, I believe them, they also maxxed out the last few years of their growth using hard drugs, I also believe them, some people here are for the legalization of testosterone to help men reach the bodies they want as trans people do, totally ok.
If we were under communism, but we are under capitalism and it's clear to me these guys are 100% oh pharma payroll and are shilling them.

>>2571298
Because old school body building was male brained oriented one goal direct path stuff, looksmaxxers need to cope with skin care, isolating positive benefits of alcohol, bone growth, penile enhancement, everything and anything.
I won't say more than this because I hate gender discussions and this is a loaded phrase but it's true:
Women put down these standards and are at fault for it.
But why aside, the fact is that now the game has changed and they need to do 300 drugs as opposed to test, dbol, tren, anvar, and a few extra health pills.

>>2571305
Yeah you are right

>>2571238
>extrapolated numbers
these are just completely made up

>>2571290
lmao

>>2571238
Giving the benefit of the doubt: we don't know if he donates part of his money to Marxist orgs. I feel like the posturing here wasn't necessary, just critique him for not organizing and that would be fair enough.

>>2571305
> Women put down these standards and are at fault for it
Do they?
I see way more of this sort of shit from the “manosphere” retards than I ever have from women.

>>2571127
i always thought he said hes a muslim so he doesnt get beheaded or some shit

>>2571332
Aims from the manosphere evolved, it's no longer just "Be a strong rich man for women" it's we have scientific proof that women don't give a shit about that, just the looks.
The problem is, that this is in fact rooted in what women want, not just grifters.

Why would I care about giving the benefit of doubt, is he wrong in one of his videos? Like who the fuck cares, I literally had no idea he was supposed to be from Iran because I only click on the videos that interest me.

It's not neo-colonialism, it's just colonialism. Again you keep using words you don't even know the meaning of, lmao.

Probably a VPN as most of the high profile cases, though it's not like saying that is gonna be any better PR lel

>>2571368 (me)
>We use this secure VPN that's for internal stuff only… but it's managed by Israel
vs
>We use this public VPN what wich you could be using as well, and it is managed by Israel

I don't think anybody, anywhere wants to be told their anything is managed by Israel TBH

>>2571357
Oh yeah you're right thanks for correcting me he didn't even do neo colonialism he straight up occupied a nation through force.

Infracels have been crashing out hard ever since China signed those construction deals with Israel. Even the pro-China types here were more critical of this move or tried to defend it without resorting to Blood and Soil tier arguments.

>>2571361
That image is fake, it has the city.
Probably deliberate to poison the well.
The real image just says Israel.

near useless, women can tell if a guy is abusing roids. usually heterosexual women aren't into that look, at all
you'll be much more likely to be approached by other gymrats 'miring you and asking specific questions about your routine and dosage/source

Yeah that's part of the problem.
Women are natural eugenicists who can literally sniff out genetics. They'll realize they're frauding.

Where is the evidence for any of these claims? If I lived in a place as reactionary as Iraq I wouldn’t be advertising the groups I was a part of. Only dogmatic retards whine about the manifesto saying communists are open about their beliefs. I’m publicly a member of a succdem party to hide my real affiliation. The guy is also a doctor and realistically his greatest contribution to a party is money (and off the books medical care for militants).

Secondly, what is it with people dismissing streaming/youtubing/podcasting as if Lenin wasn’t queer for newspapers and pamphlets. If Lenin was alive today he’d be ordering communists to make TikToks.

>>2571611
> If Lenin was alive today he’d be ordering communists to make TikToks.
accurate

>>2571153
The point of a relationship is the relationship not self help 'reach your full potential by getting a great business partner' neoliberal babble.
>>2571212
Never mind West Germany pushed to allow convicted pedophiles to adopt orphans.
>>2571337
The truth is woman care for social status, wealth strength and looks not just one. Chad billionaire werewolf alpha pack leader is the ideal.

>>2571611

This is an important point independently of this context: A lot of prominent communist parties that are not in power likely do have wealthy benefactors, even some millionaires (though not many to be sure).

But it would be completely fucking stupid to advertise the fact, both for the party and the benefactors.

Like how the KKE has some units in the Greek military and police but they are completely hushed up.

>>2571399
>critique of rootless cosmopolitanism is heckin antisemitism

>>2571736
Forgetting the historically antisemitic connotations of the term, would "rootless cosmopolitanism" or city hoping really be considered bad under socialism? Do people really need to live on the same regional landmass they were born just because they were born there? Why can't people move and create new communities if they want?

>>2571611
>If Lenin was alive today he’d be ordering communists to make TikToks.

I feel like no communist reads Lenin like ever. Mfer was pragmatic as all hell and gave zero shits about purity or optics. Something either works or it doesn't, and his math was always "If works, then do it"

>>2571743

All other things being equal, constant motion is a waste of energy & time.

If people have everything they need where they are so that are mostly satisfied, why bother continuously moving/migrating.

>>2571745
Some people like a constant change in scenery. Maybe they where born on the plains but want to live next to an ocean or vice versa.
Plenty of extroverted people like the constant motion and random interaction with others. Loving the Hustle and Bustle of the Big City might be a meme but it's true for certain types. Even for introverts taking breaks their immediate social group and surroundings while meeting new people can be enjoyable. I don't see the problem.

>>2571743
communities as they manifest today wouldnt really exist under communism

>>2571611
if they are hiding their beliefs then thats way worse. theyre then just lying and entangling communism with the most crass of bourgeois politics

>what is it with people dismissing streaming/youtubing/podcasting

lol bringing up lenin to feel good about being a politically inert wealthy memecommunist or worse, consuming that garbage

I don't think this person understands the myth of the hydra. Illiteracy prevails.

>>2571772

Interesting that you consider wanting to avoid needless waste of resources to be retarded.

To be fair I have never met an actual retarded person categorically enamored with wanton waste. Goes to show they are indeed more worthy of life than you will ever be.

>>2571736
If you're a nationalist, you simply can't be a communist. Simple as.
