ALBAWABA - After admitting to being a "fascist" during a heated debate with Mehdi Hasan during a Jubilee episode on YouTube, Catholic commentator Pinesap has been fired from his job.
Conor, who goes by the name 'Pinesap,' took to social media with a statement claiming that he got fired from his job due to his political beliefs. The statement added that Conor is raising money as an emergency fund while he looks for another job.
The influencer who goes by the name "FeelsGuy" on X (formerly known as Twitter) blamed "cancel culture" and "political discrimination" for the matter in question. Reports indicate that Conor was fired from a tech company called 'VeUP Ltd' which operates in several parts of the world, including the US, UK, Europe, and the Middle East.

His layoff sparked mixed reactions on social media with several individuals either condemning the act or siding with the company's actions.
A social media user wrote defending Conor, "Pinesap is one of my closest friends and one of the kindest people I've ever met. He has helped me tremendously in my faith and it is disgusting that he is going through this. Please help him and donate if you can."
On the contrary, another social media user slammed the individual and said, "I've dealt with Pinesap. He's no Christian. People call him a nice guy, a good man, a good Catholic. He's none of those things. He's a racist, a fascist, and a troll. If you support him, I question your faith too." What did the Jubilee video discuss?

The Jubilee video titled "(1 Progressive vs 20 Far-Right Conservatives (ft. Mehdi Hasan)" involved 20 far-right Americans debating Mehdi Hasan about several political subjects including the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza, Trump's recent political decisions, and more.
Among the 20 far-right individuals was Conor, who was labeled by Hasan as a fascist for refusing to state he's not a fan of the Nazis.
Mehdi Hasan then said, "I think you say 'I'm a fascist,'" to which Conor replied, "Yes, I am," followed by laughter and claps from the far-right crowd surrounding them.
Hasan doubled down, claiming it will be obvious to millions of viewers who the "fascists and Nazis" in the crowd are. However, Conor slammed back, stating he's not ashamed of his views.
