“much of his moves (are)”

No, “much of his moves (is)”.

The subject is not “moves.” Moves is found within a prepositional phrase, which cannot contain the subject of a sentence.

Again, if a word is found within a prepositional phrase, it *can*not* be the subject. Ever.

The ironclad, never-deviating, beryllium-level law of the English language absolutely requires agreement between subject and verb.

Much is. It can be no other way.

When you say, “Oh, that’s not important,” you cross the line between passive non-resistance to the left and active collaboration.

For those who are “triggered” by this and feel compelled to scorch my retinas with insults, go ahead. It won’t make me any less right.

Yes but will it make you any more relevant?
