Good friend, I'll be spending all day with him tomorrow just the two of us.
He's smart and well-intentioned, but not necessarily politically coherent. He's been YouTube-brained and likes Rogan and the IDW dorks. I think he lost friends on the left through FB posting about Jordan Peterson a few years ago and maybe I'm one of his only remaining left friends.
I'm going to see if he is interested in joining a radlib bud and I in a couple of weeks to discuss State and Revolution, as the rad lib bud started reading it and likes it and wants to talk to me about it.
Idk, I see people as more than just the half-baked shit they spew due to exposure to an intense and omnipresent propaganda machine.
