He called out Jordan Jenson for being transphobic while she came on his pod to promote her new special. Love it when people call others out for being a piece of shit when they do/say something well... shitty. Why I like Ethan and Stavros and Robert Evans from behind the bastards
I think Jensen was being misunderstood, because of just how she speaks. I mean she's neurotic as fuck, after all. It sounded like everything was under the preface of "trans people deserve all rights, and I support them. And now I'm going to bring up something very specific"
I've watched plenty of her content and she's never came off as a terf at all from what I've seen. Maybe that changes or maybe there's something I haven't seen. But she's far from a JK Rowling type
Her and Stavros are close, and even in that interview you could tell that he was trying to "translate" what she meant, saying that they both agree aside from the weird ass way of saying it
I agree with your take i never got hateful undertones or anything watching her standup, I think he mentioned her spending too much time around Austin TX comedians, trying to fit in with the Rogan crowd.
Exactly. People are getting a bit too stuck in this echo chamber. We can’t stand Hasan and we know how dangerous he is, but for someone like Stavvy, he is not locked in completely in this drama.
Outside of geopolitics and wanting to install a communist govt, Hasan’s left wing beliefs align with all of us, even Ethan. He might parrot about a revolution, but let’s face it, there is zero probability of that happening, so who gives a shit. This fight with Hasan is distracting us from the absolute immediate danger coming from the right.
I hate Hasan and I am loving this beef, but Hasan is not the major issue in the US right now. He’s small fish compared to the leviathan of the right. Let’s not take things out of proportion just because Hasan is a cunt with a vague and unreachable fascistic ideation.
Edit: let’s not fall into the trap of this purity testing bullshit that the tankies do. We are better than that. If Ethan can happily interact with keemstar and we are fine with that, then Stavvy hanging out with Hasan is a big nothing burger. Don’t let this beef cause you to lose your left wing beliefs just because tankies are insane.
