Transformation complete
Atlantic Council senior fellow Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib responded on X saying, "The transformation of Hasan Piker is nearing completion: dressed up as Chairman Mao whom he called ‘one of the great leaders of this world who changed the entire universe,’ he & his followers are attempting a cultural takeover of the Democratic Party, which is letting them in."

For those who may not know Hasan Piker , AKA as  Hasan Abi , he is a Muslim left-wing political commentator  with millions of followers. He seems to have a lot of influence with Gen Z and has recently endorsed some democrat candidates. His parents were both academics (which always seems to be the case with radicals) and his politics are, well, controversial. Some might say anti-western, or antisemitic or Marxist. He has millions of followers.

Recently he spoke at the  2026 College Democrats of America Summer Convention  in Washington, D.C., on July 18. He again made radical comments, but what caught everyone's attention was what he was wearing: A replica of Chairman Mao's uniform. You remember Chairman Mao? He slaughtered 70 million of his own people in the name of Communism. One individual concluded that he has now transformed himself into one of his heroes.

The question is: How much influence will he have over the democrat party?

Hasan Piker’s Endorsements

Hasan Piker, a far-left political streamer, has publicly endorsed several Democrats in recent years, often in high-profile races.

2028 Presidential Candidate
In July 2026, Piker named  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC)  as his top pick for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028, calling it “not even a question” and saying she could energize the party’s base and low-propensity voters  Fox News .

2026 Senate Races

  • Jon Ossoff (D-GA)  – In April 2026, Piker called Ossoff “my dark-horse pick” for 2026, depending on how he presents himself if he seeks higher office  Townhall .

  • Janet Mills (D-ME)  – In the same month, Piker endorsed Mills in the Maine Democratic Senate primary over far-left candidate Graham Platner, declaring himself part of the “Janet Mills militia” and praising her “clear track record”  The Daily Caller +1 .

Other Campaign Appearances
Piker has campaigned with and publicly supported other Democrats, including:

  • Abdul El-Sayed (D-MI)  – Attended his Michigan Senate campaign rally  Townhall .

  • Zohran Mamdani (D-NY)  – Appeared at his NYC mayoral election-night rally  The Daily Caller .

  • Shawn Fain (UAW President)  – Mentioned as one of his preferred 2028 candidates in an interview  Townhall .

So, he's an idiot.  No wonder so many on the left seem to be drawn to him.

It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place except you and me
So, set 'em up, Joe, I got a little story I think you should know
We're drinkin', my friend, to the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby and one more for the road.

Have a good one!

I suspect Hasan Piker has the establishment of both the Republican and Democratic Parties in a dither is because Piker has an international following.  That means Piker is in a position to influence both domestic politics and geopolitics.  And now Piker is gradually shifting from an online agitator to a political activist.

Hasan Piker is an anti-imperialist promoting the overthrow of the neoliberal hegemony in global finance, business, and trade.  If Piker was advocating for a cultural revolution then he wouldn't be as threatening to the political establishment since that could be countered by culture-war politics.  

The emergence of figures like Hasan Piker is a sign that the old politics of a 'brown majority' is gaining new traction with younger voters.  The 'brown majority' politics is really about changing the power dynamics between the Global North and Global South.  The growing movement is anti-colonial, anti-imperial, and in many ways anti-neoliberal that extends populist ideas beyond national borders.

Trump says communism is the greatest threat to America. He must have lost his mirror.

The seeded article claims Piker emulates Mao, the one time head of the Chinese Communist Party. Conservatives are hard pressed to mention China without noting the CCP. 

Trump has jumped on the bandwagon, most likely out of desperation to shift scrutiny away from his ineptitude and corruption.

Jeremy , I'll give you a chance to try and make a point.

Why has Trump used the word communism 81 times within a recent two week period?

Your side brings up Hasan Piker as if he is the ideological equivalent of one of the worlds most famous communists. 

Is there a connection between the conservative effort and Trumps "obsession" with the word?

you are outclassed, every day

I don't think it's a matter of anyone 'outclassing' rightwing conservatives, it's that they prove to everyone what class they are by their continued daily vociferous defense of a convicted felon and admitted sexual predator.

It is funny how they have to say things like "For those who may not know Hasan Piker" but then accuse all those on the left of basically being Hasan Piker. "You're just like that guy you've never heard of! Ha, so there! Burn!".[✘]

The seeded article attempts to equate Piker with a notorious communist. If you cant see the connection between that and Trumps obsession with communism I cant help ya.

I wouldn't say "far left". Seems to be pretty main stream these days.

20 years ago, Obama, Clinton, etc were saying what Republicans are saying now about things like illegals.

They would be deemed white supremacist (yes, even Obama) by today's progressives

This week, during  a speech at a high school in Georgia, he  accused those unnamed communists of wanting to destroy the monument.

“The communists want to take it down. They have tried take Mount Rushmore down. They want to blow it up. They want to take it down…. These people are crazy. 1

At this point, we should note that there is no evidence anywhere or of any sort that communists — or anybody else — is planning to “take down” Mr. Rushmore. But that’s not the point, is it? With his usual subtlety, Trump is endeavoring to portray Democrats as Reds, and he wants us to be very, very afraid. So this is just the latest twist on a very old theme .

a completely stupid, unconvincing meme.

I've never seen the right actually defend any of the long list of Trumps crimes, they just shrug their shoulders and start flinging poo at Democrats. I get that those on the right are desperate to ignore the LONG list of disqualifiers for Trump, who would ever want to have to actually go through one by one and defend all the crimes, the two dozen accusations of sexual assault, the multiple felonies he was convicted of in court that still stand because they were legit and there's nothing the whiny worthless scum bag can do about it. Anyone who voted for Trump voted for a convicted felon and a man found liable (aka 'responsible') for sexual assault in court. If a Democrat was found 'liable' for sexual assault you wouldn't hear a single Republican saying "well, being held responsible for rape isn't the same as being guilty of rape".

So, whether the meme is convincing or not, the claims against Trump are indisputable. It's sad that some apparently don't have the mental capacity to see it and were easily fooled by such a tired flabby orange faced rapist. He must have promised them something really good if they behaved.
