Liberals are drooling over ‘very handsome’ terror-cheering leftist Hasan Piker after fawning NY Times profile

Hasan Piker thinks being a man is simple.
Like many of the successful internet personalities who appeal to a generation of young men, Mr. Piker, a 33-year-old Twitch and YouTube streamer, is a “bro”: He likes weapons, inhales supplements, uses nicotine pouches and ruminates endlessly on the legacy of LeBron James. But unlike many of his contemporaries, Mr. Piker, an avowed socialist, is just as at ease dressing in French maid drag as he is on a basketball court.
Bell is both African American and Jewish, an identity that he says makes him one of the first people in the room to recognize Trump’s bigotry. “Or maybe it’s more accurate to say I’m the last one in the room who has the luxury of ignoring it,” Bell says. “And Donald Trump’s actions have been screaming bigotry long before he insisted the first black president produce not only his birth certificate, but his college transcripts and his college application. Trump’s actions have been screaming bigotry ever since his company denied housing to minorities in the 1970s.”

Alternative for Germany listed as 'right-wing extremist' party by domestic spy agency
The German domestic intelligence service says it has classified the Alternative for Germany party as a “right-wing extremist effort.”
The German domestic intelligence service said Friday it has classified the Alternative for Germany party, which placed second in national elections in February, as a “right-wing extremist effort” — making it subject to greater and broader surveillance of its activities.
The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution cited the “extremist character” of the party, known as AfD, and said it “disregards human dignity” — in particular by taking aim at those who moved to Germany from mostly Muslim countries.
“As of today … (the agency) has classified the Alternative for Germany (AfD) as a confirmed right-wing extremist effort due to the extremist character of the entire party that disregards human dignity,′ it said.
The AfD has already been under enhanced surveillance by authorities in some regions, but the announcement by the domestic spy agency means the agency's officials can use informants and other tools such as audio and video recordings to monitor the party’s activities nationwide.
