Praising communist China is too much, even for a loving mother.
Left-wing streaming star Hasan Piker received a friendly profile from Rolling Stone on Sunday which celebrated him for being a "matinee-handsome progressive icon" who is "uniquely talented at translating radical-left politics for Gen Z bros." But the article noted Piker's mom Sedaf, although she shares most of his political opinions, isn't a big fan of his China admiration.
"I'm not in love with China like he is," she said.
Her comment comes after Piker has praised China — and bashed the USA — on a number of occasions. During a fawning livestream while on a trip to the country last year, Piker insisted he would never dare criticize Mao Zedong, the founder of China's communist government.
"I got stopped by a cop who thought I was making fun of Mao Zedong, which I never would and never will," Piker said. "Mao Zedong is one of the great leaders of this world, OK? A man who changed the entire universe, the entire planet."
