..............lol, his work on personality traits is widely cited and well respected.  His work on all the marxists hiding in the closet and how women and transgender people are white genociding men... isn't.

Apparently it's the opposite of this, he gained popularity because of the latter? Now popular doesn't always mean correct but in these types of debates there isn't really even a right or wrong.
Yeah, I already mentioned it earlier in thread..but for a recap...

In the 90s, he worked on personality traits.  He became somebody in october of 2016 by protesting the non fact that the canadian government was going to gulag him for refusing to use a transgender students preferred pronoun.  He then went on a "pwning the libs" youtube tour..and finally gave his thesis, entitled..

"Identity Politics and the Marxist Lie of White Privilege"

Quote:I'm just unsure of what is actually "better" for society. Why is your or my or anyone's views better than his? What do you or I have over him? Experience? Morality? Years of research?

Maybe he might be right (with certain things, no one is right about everything), and some of what he is saying could actually improve society.
Nothing he says in his capacity as a mouthpiece for paranoid rightwing bigotry will improve society in any way.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
