I'm just wondering, because I have seen some negative comments on here about him, but they don't usually provide specifics.

He’s autistic, that’s why he’s socially awkward. It was mentioned in one of his videos a few years ago.

Clearly I missed that video. Thanks for letting me know! That makes his views and attitudes make a little more sense.

(I also didn't mean socially awkward as an insult or anything, I certainly have no room to talk)

I’m socially awkward, but that’s probably just paranoia and PTSD from my time in the military.
