    Piker is correct. But Jill Stein is not a serious politician, nor is she progressive.

        Idk man she has rubbed shoulders with a lot of people I’d call out as staunchly hostile to progressivism. This is from 2015:

            She did go to the event and sit at the table though. And if you think a politician who’s been a repeated presidential nominee for their partydoesn’t have any say in where they sit and who they’re next to… well, I’d say you don’t understand the way modern politicians operate, because they tend to be very conscious of getting snapped in shots like this if they’re not okay with it.

              this is all guessing and innuendo. and it’s not even true. putin sat down there after she was seated, and didn’t stay more than a few minutes.

        Nope, that was all fake.

        He got his problems but that’s not one of them

          Is that based on what he said, or based on what what we can see?

          While I hate to link Reddit as “proof”, I can see the same things they’re listing in that post.

          And all we have against that narrative is “he said he didn’t”

          I would take it back if there was a snopes about it.

            I mean tbh theres not much strong positive or negative proof.

            Not snopes and I honestly have no clue the credibility of the site but I found this on a search https://factually.co/fact-checks/entertainment/hasan-piker-dog-treatment-witnesses-6f72c3

            I’d want more proof before I believe that he actually did shock kaya basically.

              I mean, I saw the video clip. He leans over, presses something, the dog yelps. The collar is a design that has a shock feature.

              Personally, I feel this is giving a youtube personality far more benefit of the doubt than he deserves.
