Yeah, but I feel like he deserves critical support for his right to repair efforts. Like, he has really good takes a lot of the time even if his overarching ideology doesn't make sense.
He is a huge reactionary, but seems to place his right-to-repair activism on a way higher level of importance, and so keeps his mouth shut when he knows it would be harmful to that cause to speak. He is openly extremely racist and etc, but is smart enough to know not to say anything easily quoted to explain his views so people have to watch a lot of his videos to pick up on that. He also doesn't talk about his reactionary views very often, mostly just in passing.
I thought this was the case. Which, doesn't it seem weird for someone to be racist and also care about the homeless? I'm just guessing here, but I'm assuming that like everything else in this country, homelessness disproportionately affects members of the POC community, right?
Most reactionaries have some sort of soft spot due to personal experiences. Super Christian racist homophobe that isn't transphobic, insanely racist LGBT ally biker are both common Kinds of Guy, for instance.
Fascinating. Cognitive dissonance is truly an amazing phenomenon. And proof of how deeply neoliberal propaganda has rooted itself in our collective consciousness
isn't this guy a libertarian? and not the good kind, the american kind

There is nothing coherent about that kind of reactionary thought. The only thing that unites them is political expedience.
