Big Tim Pool fan myself. That guy is a former liberal, now more moderate, probably something of a socially liberal libertarian. But his eyes are open to the excesses of the Left. Guys like this are 100x more convincing to young people, more politically pliable liberals, than old fogies like me, LOL. He "keeps it real". He has also been there in the trenches covering mass protests, and he knows how those operate. I listen to him every day, I kinda like the counter-cultural new-right.
Tim and I are about the same age and I agree 100% with what you said.
