Hasan Piker, the biggest progressive political streamer in America, was detained by Customs and Border Protection for hours of questioning upon returning to the U.S. from a trip to France this weekend. Piker posted about the incident on X and later talked about it on stream.
He was detained in Chiago and questioned for two hours about protected journalistic activities like who he’s interviewed and his political beliefs. He was asked whether or not he’d interviewed Hamas, Houthis, or Hezbollah members. He was questioned about his opinions on Trump and Israel and asked about his history of bans on Twitch. His phone and laptop were not confiscated.
Well the only new point I made by posting that reply is that someone who abuses 9/11 to silence others is scum, so it doesn’t seem like you actually agree with me at all. It seems like you’re just piggybacking on my personal experience and conviction to smuggle in the laughable notion that you’d happily submit to needless hours of federal interrogation about your personal political views as some kind of virtue, in a limp-wristed attempt to normalize fascistic creep.
You look just as transparent to me at the first guy I replied to.
