    I do not understand the point of a debate like this.

    Ethan cannot allow his mind to be changed even as he knows he’s in the wrong. So what’s the point?

      Hasan was convinced he could do some good for third party observers or “Ethan’s fans”

      The third party stuff I don’t know about, but for some reason Hasan thinks Ethan’s audience is still progressive??? He doesn’t realize the progressive members deserted Ethan months and months ago, ironically Ethan’s former fans reached out to Hasan through the H3snark subreddit, but Hasan immediately dismissed them as “obsessed parasocial freaks” which I get, but dude seriously, talk about an unforced tactical error

      As a result of that hasty dismissal months ago that resulted in him purging those people from his memory, Hasan is now casing after people who already went to his side

      Mike From PA was correct, Hasan should have addressed this shit over a year ago instead of ignoring Ethan’s escalating harassment and blindly defending him all the way up to October
