"HasanAbi" Piker Gets Detained By Customs And Border Protection
Comments:
"This Is A Huge Win!"
"He should be deported"
"Max dood is the same. All these online people are like this."
"Investigate Twitch and YouTube already. Same with Reddit and Discord. Kash Patel add that to your investigation."

Zack "Asmongold" has reacted after Twitch streamer "HasanAbi" Piker went live on May 12 and opened up about
getting detained by the Customs and Border Protection while re-entering the United States after traveling back from
Europe. For context, Piker had previously shared on May 11 that he had been stopped at the airport by the CBP for
additional questioning and that they had asked about his political affiliations.
HasanAbi opened up more about the situation on his Twitch stream on May 12, and while reacting to a clip from that
broadcast, Asmongold weighed in and said that he does not take any responsibility for the detention.
However, Asmongold went on to accuse HasanAbi of SUPPORTING TERRORIST PROPAGANDA and asked his viewers if they would
want the authorities to question people entering the country about their alleged support of "known terror groups'.
"I take no responsibility for Hasan getting detained, but I wish I did. THE FACT IS THAT HE DOES SUPPORT TERRORIST PROPAGANDA.
Again, the honest question, ask yourself the question. Would you want the TSA, and the people that are vetting the individuals
coming inside our country, to do additional questioning towards people who have a record of supporting known terror groups? Would
you want them to do that?"
(like I told rich boy Baker... people are detained EVERY DAY by TSA and others. What make Hasan Piker better than those the TSA
detains for questioning?)
If you said this, would you not open yourself up to SOME kind of surveillance?
"If you cared about Medicare fraud or Medicaid fraud, you would kill Rick Scott."
"And I think the answer to that is absolutely yes. 100% yes. And I think even he would say that, he would have to say that. How
would you say no to this? So, if anything, this is a huge WIN."
Asmongold has crticizied HasanAbi's interview with the Yemeni indiviidual before, recently commenting that Twitch should
have banned the latter for the broadcast.
"So this [the interview] happens, this is the person[the self-proclaimed Houthi rebel] that he, HasanAbi, interviewed. Obviously,
the person ended up getting banned. And then, this person, who is a terrorist, they are a self-identified soldier terrorist... he
gets unbanned one time. There is a big pushback against it, he gets banned again. Now, he is getting unbanned, again."
"So right now we have someone who is a literal terrorist, who has been unbanned by Twitch two times. Does Amazon know about this?
This is crazy! You're either fucking up so much that it looks like you're supporting terrorist groups, or you are just supporting
terrorist groups. I think in both circumstances, the entire leadership team needs to be re-evaluated."

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
