Even in leftists spaces this guy’s qualities are outsized and graded on some ridiculous curve. Literally just saw a video of him speaking about race essentialism and I’m honestly rethinking whether I’m living on the same planet with even people I call conrades

Just because he’s tapped into the sentiments of libs doesn’t make him charismatic

I have never once seen anybody say anything positive about Kirk, excepting far right weirdos. Your comrades might be members of turning points if they're glazing him.

That's because Kirk had very little going for him. Best you could say about him was that he was a solid public speaker. The reason he had a platform was because he had billionaires shoving money up his ass and sponsoring huge events.

I mean, that's the reason any right wing media personality has presence. I sincerely doubt Fuentes has not been funded or pushed by big money.

I didn’t say anything about Kirk

Fuentes is even less liked than Kirk, same applies. Anybody glazing Fuentes isn't just maybe a right winger, they're straight up nazis.
