They could have articulated that better than just spamming "power dynamics" at people constantly.
Also the more I looked into it the more I was convinced they were a Destiny fan doing a bit.
Why would a "Destiny" (that alias is too pretentious for me to not hang quotes on it) fan be anything but enthusiastic for abusing power dynamics?
Well specifically that whole power dynamics thing came up right when the Destiny sub was having a field day about Hasan having a sus age gap relationship with someone years ago. When someone pointed out the odd correlation in timing there they got really pissed about it.
Someone made a detailed post about it, but all their drama posts seemed to line up with things the Destiny sub were talking a lot about.
I didn't know those details and that explains a lot.
Sounds like it was was a slapfight between "influencers" that went the way it usually goes.
I think Hasan was a dating a Jackson? So the discourse went "Is the age gap problamatic?" >>>> "Is the age gap problamatic even if the younger person is more famous then you are even now, mr-twitch-politics-guy." I don't even remember if any of this was beyond rumor.
You can see how this became a firestorm.
Now THIS is Titoism
