I've some Leftist videos which shows them being against Israel.The Rational National,Humanist Report and Novara Media are some of the RUclips channels that are against Israel.That being said,I can't deny there are Leftists that support Israel,though probably not the majority though.Still,I could be wrong.
Being liberal or leftist doesn’t mean you aren’t prejudice. I’ve met a lot of left leaning people who are racist, sexist, etc. Even right now, a lot of left leaning media spread a lot of misinformation about the genocide in Palestine which show their support for Israel. It’s sad honestly
Yeah, I’ve seen a lot of racist comments from ppl who claim to be against racism lol
No literally. people will claim they are against genocide and are decolonizing and then support Israel. I don’t know how they don’t see how they are hypocritical
Yeah liberals are more inclined to side with a fascist than a minority person:/
@@dragonfruitjuice1500Actually false. See: the embargo on Rhodesia.
@@loveinstars Like the president of my college. He literally says that he’s against colonization but shows favoritism towards Israel and the Israel supporters in our campus but had police investigations against Palestine supporters and Muslim students. Its disgusting the hypocrisy of it all. AND him as an Asian American did a WHOLE ASS LECTURE ON THE JAPANESE INTERNMENT CAMPS BUT CAN’T SEE THAT THE GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE IS FUCKING WORSE THAN THAT!!!!! Like the cognitive dissonance.
This story actually really reminds me of Rigoberta Menchu, a K'iche' Mayan activist. She had a biography written about her by an American anthropologist and she told really intense stories about the Guatemalan civil war that, some of which when fact checked, didn't actually happen to her. However, in her specific community (not saying all Maya but rather the Maya village she grew up in), stories are passed down orally and traditionally told as if they happened to the speaker. So she got blasted by American media for lying, when in fact she was conveying the emotion her community had gone through as if it had happened to her. She said, "I'd like to stress that it's not only *my* life, it's also the testimony of my people." With the media coverage, there was very little room for empathy or understanding of the cultural difference, and that has always stuck with me - American media would rather focus on inaccuracies than the actual bigger problems. When I ask why that is and look into it, I find it almost always comes down to money and where it's going.
So interesting that you brought this up! Rigoberta Menchú told such an important story for her people, but was widely discredited in the US because of “factual inaccuracies.” But her story was rooted in the Latin American tradition of testimonio which is loosely translated as testimony, but that translation really does not encompass all of the nuances of the story telling tradition. It really is very similar to the idea that a joke is funnier if it happened to me. (I can’t remember exactly, but I feel like Reservoir Dogs and Seinfeld both have bits about this??) I would have never have thought to link these ideas. Also does not feel like a coincidence that in both of these cases a white person is bringing down a brown person for using their platform to represent their people. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense. I am drunk and very passionate about this lol.
@@notville_ i keep seeing you
amazing amazing! i love this point and it's so critical to consider crosscultural social differences! dominant/western media is a despicable institution
Reminds me of when black people discuss civil rights movement,slavery etc. and even though people know it was the past peoples only response to invalidate us was that it didn't happen to us.
The reporters and journalists giving news out of gaza are in the description!!! please check them out if you haven't already
hi saji
Pls pin this tysm for ur advocacy and activism for Palestinians
@@FirstnameLastname49 These are important issues but they should not undermine another one weirdo it shows how u pick and choose. Also, the wording in some of ur issue stated are incorrect, such as women in Muslim countries, I see ur point but it is quite generalisation and Islamophobic as every country pretty much has misogyny and have ingrained patriarchy. There is no such thing as a Muslim country bc no 'Muslim country' follows Islamic principles fully. Also, it's not Armenians being 'slaughtered' by Azerbaijan it's simply a genocide. You have no right to disregard a very critical issue of genocide for another disgusting person.
@@FirstnameLastname49our tax dollars aren’t funding any of that, and I’m saying this as an afghan. So quit the what aboutism
As someone who's been watching Hasan Minhaj since he premiered on the Daily Show, I was already side-eyeing the New Yorker article when it came out, and didn't even bother to click on it until Minhaj released his response video. Perhaps the most infuriating thing to me was that in the New Yorker article, the girl who rejected Hasan Minhaj in high school said that she was "invited" to his comedy show and felt terrible afterwards, claiming that she was invited only to be humiliated by Minhaj. But in Minhaj's video, he says that the woman BOUGHT TICKETS HERSELF and went to his show on her own will... If Minhaj is telling the truth here, it is absolutely PATHETIC that this woman would cry victim to the New Yorker in an attempt to bring him down a peg. This article just confirmed to me that America hates seeing brown people succeed.
Honestly I think the New Yorker article was just a lie, from their correspondence I'm inclined to believe the girl told the truth and Clare just lied. Clearly she has no qualms about printing wholesale falsities.
Or the quote was taken out of context like the "emotional truth" quote.
i imagine she probably said something like "at first i felt like he had humiliated me, but then..." and the article was selective
Why are you assuming the woman cried victim? Learn something from this and don’t make baseless claims, just like The New Yorker
Yeah, I have a lot of doubt about that white woman’s motives and what she told that reporter exactly, but we don’t know if what she said was twisted by the paragon of journalistic ethics, Clare Malone.
The whole article just feels odd to read and incredibly biased. It feels like they wanted to portray Hasan as a someone who is capitalising on people's sympathy and paint him out to be a bad person. Like the stories he tells in his standup are legitimate experience that brown people go through and he's using his platform to highlight those problems and issues. Writing a bad faith article like that just enables more racist rhetoric and painting brown people in a bad light. Its so nice to see someone cover this because as an Indian it's very difficult to see famous brown figures in the west get crucified like this. Can't have another mindy kaling problem.
It gives the same energy as people being mad at Beyoncé for her movie being scheduled to show in Israel, but staying silent about Taylor Swift's movie.
@@AdumbDriverSeriously.
@@AdumbDriver Exactly and taylor promoted one of her albums in israel too im pretty sure,so.
@@AdumbDriverpeople are flaming Taylor Swift on TikTok over the movie
Pretty sure it feels biased because it goes against what you like.
You cannot tell outright fabricated stories as personal experience and then, when called out, say "well it happened to SOMEONE". Thats just douchebag behaviour.
I stopped pursuing a journalism career in college when there was such a lack of journalistic integrity being displayed in my courses and made me worried about the future landscape of journalism. I switched over to screenwriting because I figured if I was gonna be fabricating stories, I didn't wanna be lying to the public about it.
Hasan’s comedy speaks to not just the Indian and South Asian diaspora experience but also the Asian diaspora experience in general, including us East Asians. I dare say just the immigrant experience universally.
I couldn’t fucking care less that the true stories didn’t go exactly as he told them. I hope he succeeds and continues to bridge the gap between Asian Americans and everyone else.
He’s a comedian, they’re supposed to exaggerate, the point is to be funny! He should be left alone!
He is unfunny
@@dev_peace_soul That's your opinion.
@@peterwang5660 You seem triggered.
thank you once again for speaking up about palestine. not enough influencers/content creators are using their platforms to help get the word out. you are on the right side of history 🙏💞 FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
Even if they are, they aren’t using the right words at all :(
@@bluengreycould I ask what those right words are? no hate
Most of the world supports palestine because people are made to favor the small weak minority against the big and strong. You can call me whatever you make up but i can tell you it feels like the entire world is against israel.
@guyschor4757 have you considered that maybe it's for a good reason?
I think every single person knows about Palestine rn
i missed the hasan minhaj response so thanks for making this video. Knew that the New Yorker was suspicious after they made those "considering both sides of the trans debate" thingy and the Onion bit back at them. Free Palestine!
So happy to finally hear one of my favorite RUclipsrs speaking on how biased the media is. It's so important to remind people to think about what they're watching and always do your research. Thank you for this ❤️🍉
Haven’t watched the video yet, but I’ve found online dealing with so called non liberal mask off racists to be far easier compared
to dealing with people that label themselves as liberals yet use that moniker as a way to literally be racist without backlash.
What happened to Hasan minhaj is a clear example of something like this. Not even a fan of the dude, but the way he handled it was amazing.
Yeah I was impressed by his handling of it.he challenged the accusations and ... actually talked to those who accused him... to resolve it
As someone who’s dealt with stuttering throughout their life (not as bad these days), it’s really cool to see you speaking so comfortably despite stuttering and keeping your stuttering in the video whereas I feel like some people might feel the need to edit that out. You’ve got a new fan.
alway remember: no group is a monolith. Leftist, racses, queer people, artists, directors, genders, Nothing. Be cautoous always.
I've seen Leftist videos that are against Israel.That being said,I can't deny there those who join only for the sake of clout and prejudice themselves.
" when you're marginalized you will always be seen less than." heartbreaking truth. 🍉Liberation for palestine, congo, and sudan 🍉
Cope 🇮🇱
@@bennygoodmanisgodOK fash
thank you for speaking about Palestine especially when so many youtubers are dead silent about the genocide right now
Just a small reminder:
Some youtubers may be posting about this situation on their personal social medias like Twitter/X or Instagram.
Some other goutubers may not want to talk about it in video because they want to produce feel good content and leave the news and informed opinions to people who are much more informed about those kinds of situations.
I say this generally, because there are a lot if people talking about this tragedy already as well, so maybe the youtubers you're referring to are avoiding it as to avoid over-saturation of such a large topic.
Even with that said, I believe a simple 'one and done' post about the side they are on with a quaint, mild explaination if even that, would suffice. But again, i point directly to my previous paragraph.
Btw: I don't know which side I stand on, genuinely. I want to understand both sides generally so i can make my own opinion bc. I sit here. Worried to ask anyone about anything. Generally.
@@KepchupPacket i understand your last point about wanting to see both sides but if it helps: if you see what both sides are posting on social media, it will tell you everything you need to know. of course you need to do research about the history of Palestine and all of the events that took place such as the 1948 nakba, but trust me seeing what either side posts is very telling. one side is hopping on trends like "put a finger down" or "girl math" or posting thirst traps of soldiers to get people to like them while the other is showing the remains of their loved ones online so that people can really believe what's happening to them and begging for help from literally everyone.
@@areeba7045 Ty for da tips, genuinely! :) I will be looking into it a bit more.
That’s bc it’s not rly every single RUclipsrs place to be talking about it publicly
@@ajakakakak no the Palestinian people literally asked us to spread the word and keep sharing and talking about them. This isn't about who should and shouldn't be allowed to talk about it because their dying wishes are literally for us to talk about this and ask for a ceasefire.
thank you so much saji!! from the river to the sea brother🙏🙏❤️❤️🍉🍉
Israel will still be free 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
it’s so sad how “trustworthy” news sites are so prejudiced and horrible.
You're the first and only person that I follow on RUclips that has spoken about 🍉🍉🍉 Thank you!
Always a good reminder that the media can be biased 🙂
Too many people scared to say this and only wanna talk about how bad conservatives can be. Thanks for speaking on it, Saji. And free Palestine 🇵🇸
yeah free it from hamas lmfao
@@PremaPowerteam-hx3lo Free it from occupiers.
I would also add that the writer of the article had only done an interview with a comedian like hasan minhaj and not with a wider range of comedians. Its weird that they picked him, a comedian who had only truly fabricated one if the stories(the white powder one), compared to any other mainstream comedian that regularly has the majority of their specials be completely made up. Hassan mentions how he wishes they would’ve actually compared him to other comedians in his response but I think it hasn’t been said enough
So true. So many comedians are so much worse and revolve their entire career around fake stories that could actually ruin the lives of their loved ones, constantly talking shit about their parents or kids like they're the worst people in the world. Of all the comedians out there who they could've criticised, they chose Hasan? Why?
One thing I found bizarre about this whole thing is how people ignored the allegations of the poor working conditions on Patriot Act. Even before the article, Hasan avoided talking about it like the plague with his only comment on it being super vague about how some people had some issues with some managers. Giving benefit of the doubt to Hasan, it is probably because they are handling it legally and they don't want to mess it up by talking about it publicly, but it still odd imo.
I was just thinking about this! At the end of the day, Clare Malone essentially helped Hasan bury all the news about the labour conditions…
8:50 Tbf him being indian and muslim is relevant to the article bc it talks about him talking about racism and islamaphobia he experienced due to being an indian muslim in post-911 america. So i dont think its out of nowhere to mention that as it is relevant, but i can also see how starting the article that way comes off a bit... off (esp considering the racism of the rest of the article).
When i first heard that hasan minaj got into some controversies recently, i thought there were updates about the numerous sketchy and sexist stuff that happened behind the scenes of The Patriot Act. When i learned that the controversy was that hasan exaggerated some of his stories in his comedic standups, i then lost interest and i alredy suspected that the person who interviewed him was a white person. When i saw hasan's response video, that just further confirmed that the person who intervirwed him was a white person - and i didnt even read the article yet or know who interviewed him - with how there was so much emphasis on implicitly disbelieving hasan's encounters with racism, the police, the fbi, and islamophobia.
WhileI was slightly uncomfortable by his decision to lie about being the victim of a specific person, the NewYorker choosing to paraphrase what Bethany says (we never actually find out what she told them verbatim) AND despite being a “fact-checking” article immediately taking her supposed account of things while dismissing Hasan when he tried to provide them with their email exchange is pretty telling. Even if Hasan did cut out an email in which he initially invited her to his show, at the very least interviewing them both at once could’ve pushed the truth out, but her ALLEGED account was treated like a CCV recording. I’m supposed to believe the daughter of racists when she said her mom wasn’t racist? Do you know how many off-hand racist, classists, and sexist things I’ve heard from the parent of supposedly “left-wing” individuals who say with zero pushback from them
i appreciate that you can admit when you yourself were misled by something!! we all fall for this manipulation in media every now and then at least unfortunately
seeing someone who also stutters just making videos freely healed something in me idk man
I liked that you talked about Palestine!!! You have been one of the few youtubers so far .
THANK YOU. the way you speak on things is so well done, and not many content creators i watch have mentioned what’s currently going on on youtube, so thank you for doing that.
I feel like in this discussion the accusation made by his female employees get brushed to the side. Him making stuff up isn’t the biggest issue here
Maldivian here, you’re one of the few youtubers I’ve seen actually talk about Palestine
Thank you so much Saji ❤️
The video set up is so cozy I love it so much!!, love your content Saji ❤
i love that you leave your stuttering in, it makes me so happy :) thanks for being so real ❤
Wild that anyone cares if comedians make up their stories. Like I thought everyone knew that? It’s pretty clear that most stories comedians tell are either complete fabrications or altered retellings of actual experiences. Why would we expect them to only ever use 100% real stories lol that’s so ridiculous
I can’t believe I’m this early to my favorite RUclipsr’s video. I’m NEVER early for anyone’s videos because I’m always in the hospital or writing.
????
Glad you're not on the hospital today! I was in and out a lot in my teens.
The colors, the style, the acting, the topic, amazing Saji 😘👌
Firstly, thank you for talking about palestine and bias. I have seen countless articles that clearly are pushing an opinion rather than being factual (i feel like a boomer fox news person writing that). ALSO! I love the bits and interactions with the BTS Sajis! It’s awesome! Thank you for your content ❤️❤
Honestly, having read and watched so much stuff about him. Especially about his process in creating a show, prior to this article, I thought the New Yorker made him seem wild!!
Awesome video as always :] I appreciate that you cite your sources, and overall how you really take time to make sure what you're sharing to your audience is reliable. It's very admirable! :D
And I also appreciate that you shared the story about Hasan---I honestly didn't even know about the article and the false claims against him. I'm glad you're able to share the truth of the situation to people who may have believed the article/been unsure about the situation. So again thank-you for being awesome and 10/10 video!!! 🐛🐛🐛
Always so awesome to watch! I already know this ones gonna be great!
There is something so naturally Polished about you that I love.
love your content!!! especially now a lot of liberal media is spreading misinformation abt palestine and its so frustrating to see
I refused to watch any video criticizing Hassan based on the article until he responded and then I read the article again. Clearly they had already planned the direction of the article and what's worse is that the writer implied that because he took creative liberties in terms of his stand ups that people shouldn't trust his journalism either. She didn't even bother publishing his full refutation on that line of thinking! Also many comedians exagerate or fabricate situations as comedy is a creative career. Hasan did embellish certain parts of his standup but it tackled specific issues that the community faced in the US, so he didn't make crap up in order to claim and racism/Islamaphobia , he exagerrated and embellished to highlight the realities of these people's lives, which unfortunately include racism and Islamaphobia. Your comments on Palestine is appreciated, you have a new subscriber :)
So glad you made this video, especially standing up about Palestine! More people in commentary should be doing this
all of your points were so good and i didn't notice some of it myself, so i'm really glad you pointed it. hopefully i can notice it easier/earlier from now on, thanks! on another note, wtf omg, your southern accent was so good i was shook, did not see that coming! 🤣😅
Thank you for using your platform to speak up!
Thank you for the resources on Gaza! I’ve been looking for more 1st & 2nd hand sources but wasn’t sure where to start
a bit late to this video but very grateful you made it, saji! hasan’s work has always been so inspiring and important to me as someone at the intersection of 2 ethnicities. seeing him use his platform to support education on sociopolitical issues has always been so special, and even the commentary in his specials has clear impact! reading that article and watching his video made me viscerally mad and just so disheartened. lately i’m finding myself truly question so much about how i consume information. i’m glad you’ve used your space to discuss it this way, and provided some resources! can’t wait for the next one
Its awesome to catch an upload early and hopefully commenting will fuel the algorithm on this one! Your videos are top notch, some of my favorite work on the platform. Hope you're doing well!❤
Happy Diwali bro
Holy shit every video is somehow better than the last. Incredible intro!! Saw the new profile pic, jaw hit the floor, subscribed.
love the intro Saji lol I can confirm I laughed (the exhale out of the nose kind but that still counts)
thank you for this video❤️
I definitely think you’re a comedian. You make me laugh a lot
Welcome back Saji
hey i have not seen the whole vid but know it a banger
Another day another Sanji BANGER
This content is so wholesome.
SAJI I LOVE YOUR VIDS 😭❤️
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! ❤❤❤
yeah i never seem to understand why white liberals (maybe conservatives) love describing us like we are rare legendary exotic pokemon. all you have to do is say we are brown or south asian, you don't need to do all that wumbojumbo "they are curry baljeet 7/11 mothu and patlu *insert every south asian stereotype here* indian descent." do they even describe other white people like this in their journalism?
slayed it as usual 💙
Great video as always 💪💯🔥
This is so real, thank you for bringing attention to this!!
Man, I don’t subscribe to this morality at all. Comedians embellish stories all the time, to heighten the emotional response. Sometimes they tell the story of someone they know as if it happened to them because putting themselves in the center of the story makes it easier for the audience to relate. And sometimes they make up stories completely because it illustrates a point or conveys a feeling. Comedy is art and artists use lies to expose truths.
If Hasan had lived a perfectly privileged life and never experienced racism in any form, but he got up on stage and told a story about a guy being racist to him, that’s not a lie, it’s a performance, and if he were telling a story that illustrates a common experience for people who look like him, then there is truth in that performance.
Man I just love Saji 4th wall skits
hey!! I’m early and I’m a new subscriber:)
welcome to the channel, glad to have you :)
good vid, just wish it was longer!! feels very abrupt in it’s ending
people are against something until that something does something that they consider wrong so now it doesnt count anymore
Imagine asking someone who is accused of doing something terrible and they said they didn't do it and thinking you have some big "gottem" moment.
Wdym? It's not just that it can be racist, it is *routinely* racist.
Preciate you bro! You and Hasan are both gorgeous men who speak truth to power 😍
thank you for talking ab palestine in this video! everyone on youtube is just acting like it isnt happening!!!
great video!!!!
yay i'm early, i like your beanie saji
just need to say that the hair is looking really good, anyway, great video
hi saji, new subscriber here and i’m loving the content. so glad i found your channel 🙃
You're doing great. Don't beat yourself up.
Oh my god I really thought thsi was abt Hassan piker until you showed a clip
thanks for supporting palestine brother ❤
where did you get that sick lamp
And I’m a stinky little woman!
You’re very funny Saji
anyone know where the hat is from ? it’s so cool
thank you for talking about Palestine!! none of the other youtubers I watch have so far ...
your points were all extremely based but the john oliver comparison @ 9:24 put this into 4k perspective for me
this channel is indian jarvis johnson i love both
that bit should've been the whole video long
Hippy dippy people can be genocidal too, baebz.

Next thing they'll be writing an article about how Dave Chappelle didn't actually see a baby selling drugs at 3am.
I don't know, it still feels really fucking gross to lie about genuinely fearing his daughter was a victim of an anthrax attack. That's disgusting, and is so much farther beyond embellishing a story for comedic effect. Where's the joke there? As for the FBI informant, again, what was the joke supposed to be? He was literally just making shit up to gain sympathy and advance his career, not embellishing a story to make it funnier.
The prom story is the only point where I think he was treated unfairly by the article.
Saji Sunday!!!
Thank you ❤️
As a bot I can confirm that I do find your jokes funny
Don’t worry saji, I think ur funny (beep beep boop boop)
it was wild to have this article come out the same semester i’m taking a stand-up comedy class. my prof was losing their mind lmao
