    does he actually believe in anything or does he just try to stir the pot as much as possible by saying the most caca-doodoo gibberish he can conjure

    like everything he says is poisoned with ten gallons of irony to the point he may as well claim to be a performance artist

    he'll often claim to be joking or sarcastic when called out on his worst antics, it's all a game to him. Damn you hexbear for making me aware of this horrible person, I'll never forgive you. (i'll probably forgive you)

      His only coherent view is "I hate tankies". What a tankie is by his definition is incoherent, however.

        A tankie is any leftist, regardless of tendency, who manages to have any successful impact on the world.

        He has some coherent takes, like his takes on pedophilia. He's wrong and disgusting but coherent.

        No, his definition of "tankies" is perfectly coherent. It's anyone on the actual left that even slightly disagrees with whatever he happens to pull out of his ass at any given time.

      Both. He knows his ideology is incoherent so he hides it behind a veneer of irony.

      Deep down I think he's aware of his dipshittery, but can't admit that because he's a smug debate bro, where their existence is dependent on how smugly they can scream their views at a computer screen.

      On here I could get away with saying I'm an adherent of anarcho-Bidenism, but it kind of falls flat when the guy saying it unironically said that voting for Biden was supported by the writings of Marx and Lenin.
