"No investigation, no right to speak" is a good mantra. One should not speak on matters they don't know enough about. Vaush is confidently incorrect, Hasan more often than not just won't speak if he isn't knowledgeable (in comparison). The fact that it "preserves his image" is a side-effect, the true benefit is not contributing to a miasma of misinformation and misguided analysis like Vaush does.

That's why Vaush is a danger to Leftists, while Hasan is generally not.

Vaush is confidently incorrect

On some things sure, hes confident about virtually everything he says. But I suspect what you think hes incorrect on and what I think hes incorrect on are different things. I even suspect you disagree with stances that aren't even stances he actually holds.

I suspect that this vague gesturing doesn't really have a point for me to go off of if you aren't giving an example. If you don't want to, that's fine, but I don't see the point in this comment without one.
