    He’s a one-in-a-million right-winger who has actually learned how to be funny, a lot of it based on self-deprecating humor.

    “> Is obviously a silly little girl, gets offended when I suggest she wears a diaper” is a great example. It only works as humor with the dual-subjects of “I am a creepy diaper fetishist” and “The woman I’m creeping on deserves it for being annoying”.

      I knew someone like Cybersmith once.

      Only a mere fraction of his power/weirdness, but he sincerely believed all the crank and gross stuff he said, but had also loved attention good or bad, so he had a showman like talent for saying things he believed in a way that was maximally offensive but also sometimes really funny and self deprecating.

      There was no reflection or self awareness more like stimulus response and zero sense of shame.

      Also it’s really funny that he uses the correct pronouns despite complaining about it. Like accidentally better than some libs.
