Big socialist @hasanthehun bans former TYT colleague for lightly talking about a sustainable socialism model.

Then roasts Elon for censorship.

This is a "Yertle the Turtle" society.

The problem isn't politics... it's the Yertles.

Hasan seems to be a Yertle.

I honestly don't know the man, just been watching his content for about a year.

I love Cenk as a human being and find him to be an extremely principled individual. Figured it was time to see what nephew was about.

Man says all the right things...

... but does the same thing, day in and day out.

I'm frankly glad I don't have the audience he does, seems like a stressful and paranoid nightmare where no real conversations exist.

Every day, folks come for him, and I'm just not one of them. I get it, but damn, dude.

So I guess I'm the dumbass for reaching out for a real conversation in "chat," where I was permabanned...

For?

I can't accomplish a mental context where somebody who typed in maybe 30 messages total - none offensive, whatsoever - even gets acknowledgement, let alone a ban.

Without anything to be sensitive about, it's sort of worse than Elon.

Mans wants to discuss problems socialism could help with, but doesn't want to talk about actual solutions.

He's an entertainer, building a stack of turtles talmbout Kanye and Andrew Tate. Watering what grows.

I actually like the guy - I don't know him - but I'll call it like I see it.

King Yertle on a stack of turtles. I celebrate the success, which on some level, still must feel weird.

I dunno if you did the studio above Tosh, but those were the days. Giraffes in the parking lot.

Anyway.

Define property as puzzles, distribute 20% of the pieces to team hired to produce the work. It can be applied to limited or annual works, and it's done with NFTs.

I urged @hasanthehun to read the paper on his own time, got his attention, and was Elon Musk'd. 🤣

Had I started streaming at TYT... I would not be Hasan Piker, it's that simple. He's built an impressive audience and took a path only few can really understand.

Do something people will remember in 200 years.

You'll get to that GIANT platform by literally doing socialism.

I'm not charismatic, I would have fallen off after streaming for three weeks, and I've trolled influencer content for like 5 years.

Watch a few episodes of #Lensface, good links for a rainy day.

I wrote the paper on "Pocket Socialism," and we can walk through it together. You'll understand it more than most, and likely have some incredible insights.

Just know I'm not "chat," and neither is Let Me Out Productions.

I got a family legacy to protect, same as you.

I hate "proving my blood" cuz foster care trauma, but we can chat with blood in private so you know I'm not some weirdo, claiming blood that's not mine.

Robert Earl Jones is my grandmother's uncle, so there's a connection there we call "grand-uncle."

I never told anybody at TYT except maybe Jayar and Amir, because being some bullshit 6-degrees-to-the-wind relative of a famous celebrity isn't big news.

We know good and damn well I could have "clouted" this through Hollywood and been a different person, but I can't stand Hwood

Instead, I took the opportunity to join pro basketball, and I don't look back, nor am I jealous of what you've done.

I'm simply impressed, because I know what you started with. I started with the same exact position on the same exact platform.

Don't be a Yertle. Be a Mack.

Also, don't be sensitive to things I say. We're grown, I'd say them to your face with some butter sauce.

Read it the same way, we're good.

I didn't say anything in your chat that should've turned you off,. I don't know your life. I don't want it.

I'd take stable housing, tho.

@hasanthehun Pocket Socialism 101, it's awesome.

We have to understand that "non-fungible tokens" are useless as speculative assets, and that's mostly how they've been used.

You're absolutely right to make fun of this. The broad brush against the "NFT" tech for it is...

... dangerous.

It's better to understand the tech as digital cement, permanent data points that can be used to literally represent labor as equity.

So that's what we're doing, in a TV show. I don't want your money - tryna get that from canna distro, actually.

Our model distributes 20% property / output ownership to laborers, limited to a specific product or quarter.

Because the data points are programmable, they can be used to receive scheduled net earnings from a net earnings treasury. Property expenses past launch are transparent.

The build process is loosely transparent, but not fully. Hired team members need there privacy, so we can only do general numbers.

Built-in community regulation of the build process fixes the pains that have been produced in digital collectibles, and YOU can pave those streets.

We have to understand that "proof-of-stake" blockchains are more energy efficient than almost every current financial network online by a degree of 1/1000th the transaction cost, if you compare Ethereum to PayPal.

It's all available data to review.

Now, I'm currently and actively listening to your stream at 2:15pm, 3:06 in the stream.

You're talking about Black Lives Matter... I can only talk about my experiences as an Afro-Indigenous person who looks like a muppet pirate in the digimon world.

I was born on crack, and have a physical disability you probably can't show on stream without a trigger warning. I also have inefficient dopamine and serotonin receptors, so things like bans from like-minded brothers hurt more than they should.

Relatable, I know. I got you.

I was put in foster care at 6 months old, and grew up in a foundational family with some middle class privileged, and I was kicked out at 18 years.

Lucky for me, I had gotten my showbiz start in music videos at 17, so I've scraped some sort of career together.

Due to that happiness receptor problem, I "brain lock" socially, so I feel para-socially close to my TYT friends when the reality is we haven't spoken in many years.

I'm okay with it, but acknowledge the weirdness.

I celebrate almost a decade in pro basketball, so that's fun.

Despite my career health in terms of experience, it's not healthy in terms of financial position. That's not your problem - it's reflective of exactly what you talk about.

Exploited labor, even at the highest levels.

I'm a "broke boy," I hold my intestines open manually.

I currently am housing unstable with nothing, again not your problem. There's three angles to wit's end in that story, and honestly, you're kinda one of my last hopes at righting this awful ship.

So I really hope you see me as a human and a colleague, of sorts.

I never told Cenk about the JEJ thing because he would have been unbearable 😂

But now, I kinda need him to be.

Be well man.

Unban LetMeOutProductions, we're innocent.
