===== [<nowiki/>[[Jackson Hinkle]] vs [[Vaush]] - JULY 10TH, 2021] =====
On July 17th, 2024, Haz's debate with [[Canzuck]] was turned into an animation by YouTuber wow_mao, garnering millions of views. This video introduced thousands of people to Infrared and Haz al-Din. This led to more opportunities for Haz to debate prominent leftists and other online personalities.

Once the wow_mao video blew up in July of 2021, Haz gained enough clout to really establish his presence on Twitch. During this period, Haz collaborated with [[Logo Daedalus]], [[KantBot]], and [[EdBerg]], all of whom were highly influential for Infrared (especially Logo) and associated with an alternative political twitter discourse circa 2015, known as "[[frogtwitter]]"; [[Jon Zherka]] also associated with Haz, inviting Haz onto his stream multiple times; and CPI founder Caleb Maupin became an ally against Breadtubers who were now attacking Infrared. Haz held Infrarumbles (groups debate nights) where he met and featured [[Jackson Hinkle]], who eventually gained enough clout (between debating on Twitch, his interviews with [[Jimmy Dore]] and others, and his reporting on the false flag chemical attack in Syria) to debate the milquetoast Democrat whiner [[Sam Seder]] in January 2022, who conceded the debate to Jackson.
