The Political Evolution of Ethan Klein - From Defending JonTron to Podcasting with Hasan Piker
0H3H3 is one of the most well known YouTube brands on the platform. Starting as a comedy channel run by Ethan and Hila Klein, it slowly morphed into a media and clothing empire that saw their three channels gain millions of subscribers each.
At the very beginning, H3H3 stayed away from politics and rarely gave their opinion. When they often did share their opinion it was about both sides of the spectrum being wrong.
With their shift into podcasters, the pair and Ethan specifically could no longer avoid talking politics completely especially when they platformed primarily political people or longtime friends like JonTron. Ethan’s politics were fairly progressive in some ways but still focused on how both sides were flawed.
However, in summer 2020 with the increased political unrest in America, Ethan seemed to have made a political shift leftwards, which became solidified in 2021 when he pranked Crowder and then created a new podcast with Hasan Piker.
