SoA is a liberal minded person who doesnt buy i to the socialist hype. So, I expect a left of center view from him, but he tends to speak out against rampant socialist ideologies like shutting people down, harassment, etc

To be fair, UKIP did a lot of damage to itself. They spread themselves to thin...

The ends justify the means though. UKIP was formed to get the UK out of the EU, and Brexit did indeed happen. Mission accomplished I guess, so is there really a need for UKIP anymore?

And to my knowledge it’s not terribly uncommon for European parties to pop up and go away anyways.

I "think" that they released their policy manifesto too early. They formed over Brexit, but hadn't acquired enough goodwill amongst the populace in order to become a more mainstream party.

They should have saw Brexit through to the end, celebrated, and then change gears to become a more mainline party.

Loosing Farage didn't help, and him forming the Brexit Party hurt UKIP a lot by taking alot of those "Brexit-only" voters.

It was a bad decision for UKIP to bring in Sargon, Tommy R, Dankula, etc... its to easy for the media to take the spicy things that they have said and post it up for the country to see, in order to make UKIP look far-right.

That being said, UKIP was already on a downward trajectory prior to that and would have fizzled out regardless.

UKIP had almost no members when he joined. He boosted their membership by about 30K people. He was their “last hurrah,” he didn’t destroy it.

What had a bigger influence was Gerard Batten choosing Tommy Robinson to be an advisor. That caused Nigel to bail and start his own party for Brexit.

For the record I’ve followed Sargon since his first video, wondering why the fuck the feminists were complaining about video games back in 2013.
