8. Follow over to YouTube, some of his videos are hilarious

The one about a self styled alpha male living in Hungary was a scream. He's also really hard on conservatives.

Oh, and he's got a big bug up his butt about Elon Musk. I have to agree with him about the "hyperloop" nonsense. Elon, I know you're on the spectrum and hate crowds as much as I do, but the solution is trains, not scaled up pneumatic tubes with extremely limited capacity.

9. Damn, this dude is savage

I especially love how white people are expats, not immigrants.

Even in the US, brown people are immigrants or H1b job stealers, not multigenerational American citizens.
