    He is truly just mad about Hasan having a good time in China and representing it in a positive light to people in the west. Because, of course, his neoliberal project is threatened by exposure to people living well elsewhere.

    I do think it’s remarkably telling the tone shift he makes between his shitty articles and tweets. He can’t help but implicitly frame Hasan’s visit in sexual terms once he’s no longer bound by editorial review. Does something about the charismatic, himbo muslim disturb and anger the slopconimist?
