Hank Green is my problematic liberal fave, but holy shit dude went full “officer involved shooting” here. “As bombs continue to drop” come the fuck on man.

    The only regrettable part of becoming a communist is that two-thirds of my favorite YouTubers have become somewhat insufferable.

    It’s easy to forget because he’s such a “lovable nerd”, but Hank Green is a highly public figure who gets deals and grants and investments and invests his own net worth of millions into various ventures, he has employees and has founded multiple companies and a charity non-profit, and all of that means that he has to word things very carefully… One might even argue that Hank Green is, dare I say, bourgeois, and that his actions are both guided and constrained by his class interests. Imagine that!

    Two kinds of people are going to watch this video.

    • People who see this as a genocide that we need to stop
    • People who think Gazans deserve the carnage inflicted on them by their Settler neighbors

    Only one of them is going to send aid.
