What the actual hell?! How does his audience and himself still think they are even close to a "leftist"?! Hopefully his bigotry will make it easy for his following to fall apart. That is assuming they aren't all also just shitty gouls like the man himself.

I don’t understand why he can make a terse, vague comment like ‘dumb take’ but an easy dismissal like ‘you’re cis’ gets his blood boiling. That wasn’t one of his most disturbing comments, though…
‘Fascism is when you like it when people are strong, and not whiny, when they publicly advocate for positions! You’re right! […] That’s why, when we have public panels where we have to send up people do defend leftist ideas in front of an audience, we should send up the most cripplingly, socially awkward, autistic, fucking heavily accented dumbfucks up there to represent our positions, so they can cry and stammer over themselves for two hours like a useless [insert slur here]! And then, when I look at that, I go, ‘Hey, maybe we shouldn’t be sending these people out there to represent our positions’, that makes me a fascist! You’re right! Absolutely! Got ’em! Good praxis!’
Yes, Fascism was a more complex phenomenon than your critics may imply. But contempt for the weak was an important characteristic of Fascism, both theoretically (‘Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.’) and in practice, and when you repeatedly disparage us so harshly, calling us ‘subhuman’ or ‘cancer’, calling us threats to each other (perhaps even more so than anybody else), talking about us as if we have no place in the proletariat’s struggle for self‐emancipation, you won’t get any sympathy from me when somebody accuses you of being fascist.
‘If a bunch of Jewish people came up to me, unironically, and started accusing me of [being] antisemitic, yeah, I’d get real edgy real fast. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. I despite these people.’
If a bunch of Jewish people came up to me and accused me of being antisemitic, I’d ask ‘Why? How?’ Because that is the responsible thing to do: you use (well meaning) criticism to find your mistakes and prevent yourself from making them again. Even for far‐right Jews, I still wouldn’t indulge in any ‘ironic’ antisemitism just to piss them off.
The nicest thing that I can say about this video is that, an hour in, it looked like approximately half of his audience was questioning him (for once). That’s it.
