Abdul El-Sayed campaigned with Hasan at Michigan State and the University of Michigan. the Haley Stevens and Senator Elissa Slotkin came out and condemned it and announced they are shunning Hasan and anyone who reaches out to him.

Senator Mallory McMorrow directly compared him as the Nick Fuentes of the left. a direct comparison to a white supremisist neo nazi.

Rep. Brad Schneider has outright and publicly labeled him an anti-semite

Jonathan Cowan wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed titled “Draw a Line in the Sand,” stating: “No Democrat should engage with him. All should seek to push him to the fringe, where he belongs.”

he was kicked out of the 2024 DNC because he criticized the democratic party complicity in the genocide in gaza.

if you don’t consider these attacks on his voice and his character, then by that logic the establishment never attacked trump either.

I consider them attacks against his character, of course. And I outlined exactly why they are attacking his character.

I asked you for examples of them attacking him based on his “progressive views”.

That’s your claim.

  You justify attacks on his character and ignore why he is targeted to avoid admitting that the party is hostile to the left. You asked for examples of them attacking him for his views, and I gave you a list of high-ranking Democrats who used astroturfed labels like ml, neo-Nazi and antisemite, the exact moment he started campaigning for an arms embargo in Michigan.
  
  That isn’t a character critique it’s a political hit job designed to make his progressive views radioactive. If they didn’t care about his views, they wouldn’t have kicked him out of the 2024 DNC for his stance on Gaza, and the DNC wouldn’t have just voted in New Orleans to protect the dark money PACs that fund these character assassinations. You’re not arguing in good faith, you’re justifying a purge by pretending it’s a personality conflict.
