I tried to watch that interview (not this well-deserved rebuttal, the original) and just couldn't force my way through about half, wherever the (dumbass) Brazilian favela story ends. Despite Callaghan and team's sincere efforts, Nick just comes off like the fucking moron he is.
Ignorant about the things he himself has chosen to squawk about, while also truly lacking the mental "equipment" to engage with the topics in any complexity.
Like, any complexity, he seemed completely unable to manage the difference between the ideas "95% of Somali immigrants are law-abiding" and (his claim) "89% of fraud in Minnesota is committed by Somalis". Those can actually both be true and they aren't even very complicated but it was too much for him.
To be clear I'm not weighing in on those stats whatsoever, just the fact that he could not navigate the nuances between them at all.
He's not just wrong and hateful, he's fully incapable of understanding the exact phenomena that he somehow feels called to scrutinize and then scream about. He doesn't realize that "real" conversation on the topic would go completely over his head, he's so foolish that he can't even see how out of his own depth he is.
I'd love to just call him a clown and move on but his flavor of horseshit is SO dangerous these days, as we see!
