Yea shyt is absurd. This dude is doing nothing but spewing talking points and thinking that makes him intellectual. It's really not worth the time to "debate" these clowns.
His entire belief structure is exemplary of the vapid, anti-intellectual basis that all these fukkwits operate under. Like, he describes an incident where he "debates" a student (he's fukking 24 so he needs to shut up) who asks him the perfectly valid question "when was America ever "great"" and one of his answers is the perfect encapsulation of everything disingenuous about these morons.
"America is so bad, then why does it lead the world in creativity, inventiveness, and discovery?"
This is some shyt you read in a
bad fortune cookie. And he treats it as if it's some profound statement about culture and America. And it is, just not in ANY of the ways he intends for it to be.
