    Pretty close to being a transphobe to the point of being extremely confrontational about whether he'd use pronouns and stuff. Forget which podcast this was on, was it the Adam Friedland show episode maybe? Also he'll go on anyone that'll have him at this point, so a lot of right-wing things. Also used to be a Maoist but was disillusioned by the Dengist turn in the '70s so what his current, actual politics isn't super defined.

      He was on Pod Damn America and just ranted about “woke” issues and there are only 2 sexes for about an hour.

      And this is just an appalling piece where he runs the gamut of transphobic talking points.

          I also forgot how bad the anti-woke brainworms are. He has interesting stuff to say on so many topics but yeah, no excuse for that stuff. At least with Norm you can tell whatever he says he legitimately believes which is something at least. I also don't think he's a mean spirited person at all which makes the anti-woke stuff that much more confusing.
