I love the guy and the courageous left-leaning progressive stances and slandering he's doing to the you-know-who administration atm.

I think he's up there with Ruby Setnik, Romesh Ranganathan and Stephen Colbert as my favourite leftist satirist, and his podcast is such a fun time-waster of a audio frequency too.

But I respect your opinion if you aren't a big fan of his.

but he misses the boat sometimes on some issues where he is blinded by his idealism and ignorance on certain topics

Yeah I've caught this a few times. It's easy to forgive him though cuz he's very much a positive force in the universe.

    He's a liberal-elite and promotes liberal-elitism. If you're not a liberal elitist, he's not a force for good.

    No he isn’t and no he doesn’t.

    If you’re not a pseudo-intellectual wannabe socialist anarchist, you’d see that he is absolutely a force of good. But this requires nuanced thought- of which the aforementioned posers are incapable of.
