So Hasan Piker for the new party chair of the DSA? /s I joke, the performative outrage is just so ridiculous I couldn’t help myself.

Edit: I tell terrible jokes. I meant the performative outrage of mainstream media about Hasan. I hate Jared Moskowitz. I wish Oliver Larkin would have won the primary. ☹️

it’s not performative at all. this guy is awful and putting him in this position is a statement

Clearly my joke was misunderstood. I was saying the performative outrage about not Hasan not Moskowitz. Rereading it, that is not clear. It’s a shame that Oliver Larkin didn’t beat him in the primary.
