There are real economic policies that could improve people’s lives. Tax the wealthy, break up large corporations, actually implement healthcare.
The wealthy want to distract you from these things because they enjoy not paying taxes, controlling huge corporations, and profiting off of you when your sick.
So they distract you with demagoguery about failed economic systems to keep you ignorant of the policies that will actually work. Guys like Hasan don’t want you to have a better life, they want to profit off of you by selling socialist themed t-shirts at their merch stores.
No socialist movement can succeed without the working class. The working class know how difficult it was for people like them under socialist systems of the past. It is only the university elite that get scammed by guys like Hasan, he does his performances on a set designed to look like a dorm room after all. You have an affinity to Marx, Lenin, Mao, maybe even Stalin if you’re particularly tankie. The Working class have an affinity towards the people that starved, were worked to death on a “five year plan” or people in China right now working a 996 shift. You’ll probably have to do some googling to figure out what a 996 shift is because you care so little about the working class.
He’s not using a dime of the money he’s made off of his grift to organize labour, there is zero effort to appeal to the working class in this faux socialist movement. It wouldn’t work anyway because there has been enough contact with people in the working class with people that have immigrated from former socialist countries that they all know the socialist rhetoric is bullshit. Life was worse for the working class under socialism, you hand wave it away as a minor detail, and that makes you toxic to the working class. Only wealthy university kids that haven’t had much contact with the working class buy into the “class consciousness” “late stage capitalism” type rhetoric. The working class knows it’s all a lie, anyone who’s talked to anyone from Eastern Europe or Cuba who was working class and not part of the political elite knows what’s up.
Hasan represents a movement for psychopaths that ignore the hardships of the people that were oppressed be the authoritarian regimes you regularly quote.
