During his interview with MSNOW's Symone Sanders-Townsend and Eugene Daniels, Hasan Piker talks about Hamas, the Palestinian resistance as a whole and the issue with the concept of a 'perfect victim.' He compares it with other liberation movements throughout history: "And that is the issue at the heart of the matter; people want perfect victims. Whether they be Black people engaging in the Civil Rights' struggle, historically, whether it be the forces against apartheid in South Africa, whether it be the liberation struggle in Algeria. The expectation from the white moderate or the expectation from people who enjoy the order that exists in civilized society, is that people are not supposed to fight back and try to even match the intensity or the violence of the occupation, the colonial entity or the forces of police brutality that are defending white supremacy. So, that's the reason why I make this distinction. I want people to start thinking; what would they do in that situation? What would they do if they lived in the world's largest open air prison that's hermetically sealed, that is a nuclear armed state, that is backed by the most powerful entity on the planet?"

Hasan Piker discussed the Alberta Referendum results. Hasan highlighted what everyone else should also be thinking about; the fact that a quarter of the Albertan population voted to separate from Canada. However, there is a silver lining; Alberta, Canada proved that it is not completely under the spell of the MAGA movement: "It's still disappointing to know that there is a referendum that took place and 24% of Albertans that voted in the referendum voted to separate. That is kind of terrifying. I need you to understand: One out of every four Albertan is a chud? That's still a lot of people. I will say this: that puts Canada at a higher playing field than Americans. That's it. It's proven. These sorts of psyops do work in America, we do vote for MAGA, we do vote for Trump. Even in the most conservative area in Canada, even with America pushing to foment instability in Canada, pushing for a separatist movement, Canadians are better, by and large, than Americans and even the British as well."

On WABC Radio, Hasan Piker talked about the comments he made about 9/11 and clarified his statement that continues to be misconstrued and misrepresented over 7 years later: "I've apologized many times. I should not have used 'deserved' because I was talking about American foreign policy leading to instability all around the world, making retaliation an inevitably. But, it was a horrifying tragic incident, a horrifying disaster. 3,000 innocent Americans lost their lives. It's completely unacceptable and that was not my intention at all. Sometimes, you get passionate and you say something that you don't mean and it gets misconstrued and that's precisely what took place in 2019. The day after, I went on the Young Turks and I apologized. I'm always fascinated with the way that Fox News and the Republicans treat a lot of the things I'm saying and doing because I always assume that they would have the most experience being misconstrued and misunderstood. But, it turns out that people don't offer a lot of sympathy to their ideological enemies unless you have a normal in person conversation."

Hasan Piker discusses his biggest fear with Zohran Mamdani's governance; he is worried that the entire people-backed movement that got Zohran to his position of power in the first place is going to become replaceable: "My fear is that once elected representatives get to a certain point, we lose our power; the movement loses its power, where the elected representative becomes the signifier of the movement; the main person that people actually rally around, rather than the movement itself. Leaning in to Hakeem Jeffries and Donald Trump, these are understandable calculations that you make as a person in a position of power. But, there is a give and take. If all you're doing is casting aside the people to your left that brought you here, while simultaneously leaning further and further into establishment figures on the right, then you are simply building YOUR platform and taking the popularity that you garnered as a consequence of winning the election and basically saying, 'People to my left are utterly irrelevant. Those who brought me here are utterly irrelevant. I will secure a new audience for myself. I will secure new fans for myself and those fans will be motivated to defend me and not become new fighters in this cause.' That's something that I think about a lot with our elected representatives."

Jeremy Corbyn talks about being name-dropped in the Epstein Files. Epstein wanted to get rid of Corbyn: "I'm in the Epstein Files and the way I put it is like this, 'I'm the only person in the Epstein Files that's proud to be there.' They talk about how to get rid of me."

Hasan Piker on Amy Klobuchar and Angie Craig condemning and trying to cancel his planned event with Ilhan Omar and Omar Fateh: "I have a lot of fans in Minneapolis. Minneapolis is one of the more radical, Democratic base of supports in the country. I'm willing that there are more people deeply invested in the party in Minneapolis that are fans of mine than fucking Amy Klobuchar, you know what I mean? I'm so tired, man. I'm tired. What you do not realize is this: When you make a big deal about a narrative that is entirely reactionary, designed to cause an outrage cycle in Minnesota, as a Democrat, even if you like your big donors, you should privately assure that we are different than one another; we're not fans of each other, but it's a big tent and we gotta defeat Donald Trump. These guys [centrist Democrats] think there is this broad, anti-Hasan sentiment bubbling up. They do not see that these attacks only make them look like they're deeply out of touch and deeply out of step. Klobuchar, you're going to win. It's going to be a blowout victory. What are you doing? This is your time to actually lean in to your base. I'm just so tired. The Somali community is constantly under attack by the exact same forces that are trying to present me as this big danger and you have prominent Democrats in this state leaning into it. Disgusting."

On October 19, 2019, Hasan Piker reacted to AOC's endorsement video of Bernie Sanders. Hasan gave AOC, Nina Turner and Bernie Sanders their flowers for consistently highlighting that the anger that Americans feel is deep-rooted in the system and more broadly, capitalism: "The reality is Americans are frustrated. Americans are very angry; if you look at the Donald Trump rallies, you see that, and they want a good villain. The real villain is the one that Bernie Sanders, Nina Turner and AOC calls out frequently; the real villain is the system itself. The real villain are the institutions that legitimize our oppression, our struggle, our marginalization. Calling that out in very clear, black-and-white terms, I think, is more effective because as Bernie has said time and time again, EVERYONE is angry. Channelling that frustration will be a more successful way to rile up people than just saying, 'Oh yeah. Bernie is great. He's consistent.' We know that. We know that already. What we need to do instead is show them the truth. Who is actually stealing from the American working class? Who is actually exploiting us? Who is actually taking our labor value and underpaying us every step of the way, then taking those additional profits and building out and padding our institutions that then legitimize the same exploitation? It's not who; it's just capitalism. And it is THE legitimate system."
