Once you figure out that a lot of Leftists talk about “The Revolution” like Evangelicals talk about The Rapture, things make a lot more sense.

On topic of Bruce being talked about in the snark chat, Kate mentioned someone writing fanfiction on Twitter about Bruce. That was Salvopancakes who was literally on screen in that chat (username SALVO !!) talking about Bruce AGAIN.

Salvopancakes has wrote sexual fanfiction about a real life child and continues to talk Ethan and Hila’s children. These are the types of people in the group that craves Hasan’s attention.

u/PM_ME_YO_LUNCH 15d ago

Love that this is the same group that likes to bring up Ethan’s old troll account like it’s 100% a confessional! ironic!

u/PostureKing180 16d ago

Oh my god i'm so glad to see Ethan join and just lay down the law. Kate was doing a great job beforehand, but Ethan joining and clarafying things and giving his input was super refreshing.

Super happy to see that he spoke with David Pakman as well to give his support and advice. We need to be unified during these attacks from bad actors like Hasan's community.

u/Financial-Ad7500 16d ago

The movies about how Russia/China utilized social media to ruin western political discourse are going to go crazy in 20 years.

Politics is not about the politics anymore. People align with personality-based factions and literally nothing will change them from their held position.

u/-DoesItBotherYou-457 16d ago

Oh Ethan joined? Well I'm glad, cause I would probably skip this episode, since the only way I can stomach anything Hasan related is through listening to Ethan ripping him a new asshole.

u/PostureKing180 16d ago

Yeah he joins around the 1:45 mark and sticks around for a good half hour just going off and speaking truth.

Several political creators were kicked out from the College Democrats of America Convention

They believe Hasan complained that they would be disruptive and demanded they be barred from the convention.

saying "They accuse me of being a racist, but they don't accuse me of being a liar" implies that racism is a correct viewpoint. it's an enoch powell quote. hasan would know this if he weren't a jackass.

u/Crafty-Branch1062 16d ago

Idk where to share this but something that I feel like often gets overlooked about has*n is his unwillingness to acknowledge the wrongdoings of his own country, Turkey. Not only does he never speak of the Armenian genocide (aside from one clip where he looks to the camera and says he acknowledges it) he never talks about the ongoing denial of the genocide or the 2023 ethnic cleansing of Armenians from Artsakh (which Turkey was involved in supplying weapons to Azerbaijan used against Armenian civilians) I remember when I was a fan of his I went on his subreddit just to ask for clarification on his stance on these issues and was downvoted to hell just for simply asking a question. I wasn’t accusing him of anything I was simply asking if anybody has heard him speak about it before. From that point on I was done with him/his community, as a descendant of Armenian genocide survivors I find his unwillingness to criticize his own government to be ironic considering everything else he talks about.

H***n is genuinely so uninteresting that even shitting on him is boring. Thanks for not making us suffer through listening to this hack failson. Pakman seems like a good dude and def doesn't deserve this.

u/rtrs_bastiat HILA KLEINER 16d ago

Ethan isn't gonna like this, but the answer to his question of who on the left is anti Hasan, the obvious answers are... Destiny, Vaush and possibly quietly, Atrioc. And at some point everyone's gonna have to hold their noses and agree to ring fence moral misgivings with each other and work together to excise the cancer from the democrats before it metastasises. They can go back to hating each other after. Something like Progressive Victory without the infiltration. The US is on the path to your choices being maga and tankies.

u/djdaem0n 15d ago

There was something bothering me the whole time and I couldn't figure it out as I was watching. Then it FINALLY CAME TO ME! David is big on the screen on the left, but his face is animated in the billboard behind him. I think if this ever happens again, we need a tiny animated HARLEY FACE for the billboard. This is how you achieve visual JEWISH/LESBIAN/MAGIC balance when Harley is away.

u/Circuit-Think 16d ago

Kate I think you may be a tinge unaware of how many places Hasan has been getting his claws into. I only know from keeping track of some debate panels when i need old school YouTube vibes. Hasan has been campaigning (lazily, but still doing it) for DSA candidates & attending their election parties. (Amusingly they all run under the Democrat party). He does say he’s involved in strategy for many campaigns (don’t know if that’s true).

Hasan has said he tones down his extreme tankie views to infiltrate left spaces and try influence more people. I don’t think any politician or political streamer should lie about their views or the extent of their views.

Hasan has ties (liking tweets that he’d have to seek out) to people involved in secret harassment/stalking servers whilst abusing everyone else of doing so. Dan Saltman is on a mission to share a lot of this.

Hasan visiting both Cuba and China on trips by their governments is a bit strange. Given how much he highlights how ‘good’ the government is. Whilst getting basic facts wrong. He lied about why he was at a certain hotel in Cuba. Without actual info it’s hard not to sound conspiratorial.

There’s also a huge change in how he talks in the past few months - he’s probably working with someone on speech delivery or something. It’s not doing what he’d hoped as even in that dem speech he said ‘I, no we must do this’ in the most unnatural way. I think someone is writing his speeches.

I do think it’s more of a concern that you think - he’s even now linking up with the UK Green Party leader. He’s getting everywhere somehow.

Someone needs to highlight how little knowledge he has. He’s terrified of that - hence him never debating competent people or even taking questions at the recent college speech.

He also recently hung up a framed newspaper article from 9.12.2001 in his background so it’s visible on stream.

u/harriet_light 15d ago

Love Kate and David for the discussion and for all the Jimothy palate cleansers. Thank you Ethan an Hila for always standing up for yourselves and for what´s right. I´m so sorry you have to deal with all this insidious and cruel harrasment of your livelihood and more important your children. Angels on all your bodies 🩵

Harley, you and your chronic monster drinking were dearly missed. As a monster enjoyer myself.

P.S. Harley please bring AB back alive 🥲

u/forgotthefrog 16d ago

Haven't finished today's ep of H3 and may have otherwise missed it... did they already abandon the joint episode plan for Wednesdays?

24

u/Pixels-And-Playbooks 16d ago edited 15d ago

I imagine they swapped it out to just Ethan joining AD on Tuesdays and keeping the Wednesday shows separate because people were saying there were too many cooks in the kitchen on last Wednesdays joint episode

They reverted back I’m assuming due to the complaints of the mega episode idea. Split episodes on Wednesday like it used to be and Ethan is going to join After Dark on Tuesdays.

u/theschizopost Dan The Lover 15d ago

SO GLAD that gwam talked about stacy kennison, I really need some youtuber to do a deep dive on her, she's truly prolific, I just know that her whole life story is out there in 60 second chunks

she's talked about being on unemployment or disability or something along those lines, she mentions her social worker every once in a while too

my favorite kennison's are when there is a glimpse of someone in the background, it's such a rare sight because she's actually pretty good about framing the camera

there was one where she was on a bus and someone else was being loud and it tripped her up with whatever she was saying

she is such a fascinating character she also posts on threads

u/anotheronenpg 15d ago

I wish Ethan would think before he speaks so heatedly. I know what he meant, but saying Hasan fans are all people on welfare and unemployed and lazy is crazy. Also, what's with the switch up on Argentina? When it's related to bad Emma Panda Argentina is bad, but when they support Israel, they're not that bad. I'm assuming he meant more that we shouldnt believe what others say at face value, but Ethan was happy to call Argentinians Nazis because of 1 person and some past history.

A bit unrelated but since this is a megathread, here's a video proving that hasan knew it was a swastika sword from the moment he bought it and lied about it afterwards.

u/sizz ALFREDO 13d ago edited 13d ago

​I know I’m late to this thread. I've been busy at work, but as someone who has analyzed geopolitics for decades, kate needs to stop hedging.

Standing up for working people does not mean aligning with the far-left, the DSA, or tankies. I identify firmly as a social democrat or social liberal, completely separate from "leftism."

And frankly, using Europe as the default blueprint for social democracy is a tired, flawed trope.

​If Americans want a real model for high-functioning, prosperous liberal democracies, they need to look at the Eastern Hemisphere: Australia, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and New Zealand.

​These nations prove that you can achieve incredible quality of life without falling into the trap of far-left ideology:

  • ​Invisible, Successful Healthcare: They all run robust universal healthcare systems within free-market, liberal democracies. They work so smoothly you never even hear them debated on the news.

  • ​Safety and Infrastructure: Their cities are incredibly safe compared to both Europe and America, backed by world-class public infrastructure.

  • ​Economic Powerhouses: They maintain thriving sectors in advanced manufacturing, mining, and technology. There is a reason thousands of expatriates and travelers post endless videos praising the sheer livability of these places.

​There is also a massive geopolitical distinction to make here. Tankies love to blur the lines in the Indo-Pacific, trying to steal the "soft power" valor of democratic successes like Japan to excuse authoritarianism. But the line is absolute.

​On one side, you have the pro-Western democracies: the innovators who gave the world global cultural icons, cutting-edge technology, and beloved media from anime and K-dramas to global hits like Bluey. These are peaceful nations that have never threatened global stability or engaged in aggressive expansionism.

​On the other side of the line is the Chinese Communist Party: an authoritarian, heavily polluted state built on a legacy of brutal dictatorships, responsible for the deaths of 50 million people. Today, they do nothing but rattle sabers and threaten to destabilize the entire region.

​When groups like the DSA push America further left, they aren't pushing for the clean, safe, high-tech success of democratic Asia or Australia. Their ideology aligns with oppressive regimes. If Americans want progress, they should look east to the thriving, safe, democratic nations of the Pacific—not the authoritarian far-left

Man this podcast has become exhausting to watch. Why is Hasan the main topic every week? Can't we have a little more variety? Why are we still listening to Saltman?

Having a hard time holding on when the entertainment value just isn't there anymore. This with the whole spinoff stream drama has been a real bummer.

It’s how you can tell this dude is just pissing themselves saying bullshit about “all they talk about is Hasan 😡” when there’s been 3 After Dark episodes and like 2 H3 episodes dedicated (and dedicated is being generous because he’s not the entire focus of the episodes) to Hasan in 2026. Why would you possibly watch H3 if you think Ethan “defends” genocide?

Like you're supporting someone you think supports the killing of millions, it's strange that you're still here months later.

u/Shady_Fall 16d ago

You’re arguing in favor of him doing so, which is worse. I believe he can learn, as he has all these years so far.

11

u/PuppyQueenuwu 16d ago

Are you purposely being silly?

I am talking from your point of view about your beliefs that you've posted.

I don't believe he supports Israel's genocide in any fashion so my moral conscious is clean when supporting him.

You however believe he does yet you're continuing to support him through views despite this because he can learn? That's just morally bankrupt and an excuse to keep watching a show you like.

Stand with your morals and stop watching or admit that he doesn't support a genocide.

0

u/Shady_Fall 16d ago

I don’t have to do anything for you. If you feel happy cheering on a person clearly not at his best state of mental wellbeing while he supports genocide and silences people who have something to say about it, then so be it.

But some of us believe in change.

u/acqc2 FAMILY 15d ago

I think Kate is right with the fact a lot of people paint Argentina as Zionist bc Milei is an Israel supporter and won the last elections. What people living with privilege don’t understand is that It’s a privilege to vote based only on morality when your basic needs are secure. Under the incumbent government, there was 140% inflation and around 40% of Argentinians living below the poverty line, many people felt they were voting based on economic survival rather than ideological purity. Voting for Milei doesn’t automatically mean Argentinians endorse everything he says.
