Hasan Piker is a RedLib who claims to be a Socialist, despite the fact that he repeats Deep State talking points about Russia and China, and tells his viewers to vote for the Democratic Party.
Hasan attacked journalists such as Jackson Hinkle and Aaron Maté who reported the OPCW coverup of the Douma terrorist attack, along with TYT, in and following 2018.
Hasan repeatedly attacked Haz and Jackson for their creation of MAGA Communism, which he said was an appeal to Trump supporters and evidence of the "red-brown alliance" (the same purity fetish smear his uncle Cenk Uyghur used against Jimmy Dore). In fact, Hasan was interviewed by CNN's Donie O'Sullivan, who was doing a hit piece on MAGA Communism at the time, to discuss the reason young men aren't becoming retarded leftists anymore.
After the 2024 election was won by Donald Trump, Hasan suddenly said that the reason the Democrats lost was because "the left" doesn't appeal to blue collar workers, who are culturally conservative, and his uncle's show The Young Turks adopted this new line too. This was, in his own words, the only reason he doesn't support Jackson Hinkle.
This is one example of many which shows how Hasan doesn't hold any controversial or heterodox positions, opting instead to wait until it's safe to do so after others break the ice. He also did this notably regarding the COVID-19 lab leak.
