I assume the joke is partially that Hasan gets tons of undue hate despite being pretty much correct on most issues because he happened to be the one who got famous.

The few issues he's "wrong" on (as wrong as non consequential opinions can be...) I believe are meant to temper further insanity from coming his way.

For example, saying Ukraine has a right to defend itself and people should be angry, etc. I'm of a mixed mind on because, no, it really should not exist. But it does exist, so, how should I feel when its borders are challenged? I feel like I've felt for over two years.... just surrender that land to Russia. It's not even a thought in my mind for half a second especially when the people there were (I dunno about now) wanting to get away from Ukraine anyway.

I dunno it just feels like if Canada invaded Idaho and proclaimed it as independent and the people who lived there wanted to be Canadian... like wtf? Yeah, just let that happen.

He still sticks to the "Ukraine's fight is righteous" argument though and refuses to hear anyone say otherwise lumping them under "If you disagree then you must think Russia is in the right." No, I think both governments kinda suck shit. I'm just saying the easiest and best solution, once you remove the frankly moronic obsession with a nation's borders (a ~30 year old nation btw even worse example), is to look at the population's wishes and just go with that. Bam. Done. The only Ukrainians obsessed with fighting forever are the far right wing Nazi types. I just don't get calling their fight righteous or justified unless you are under a delusion that life under Putin is significantly worse than under right wing Ukrainian leaders (seems unlikely) and you're discounting the fact that people there wanted to join Ukraine. I think he says it for political expediency because liberals literally shit their britches at this stuff, but he's still maintaining it even now when the frothing libs are also accepting the inevitable (or getting there). Kinda frustrating but whatever. He does acknowledge them handing over the territory is the most likely end result and has maintained that for quite a while, so, we agree on the end result at least. We just disagree that anyone has a legitimate reason to be fighting in the first place.
