He's 22, which basically means that he doesn't have the experience to truly understand what he is saying because he's never had to put it into practice.
Much like AOC.
But that in itself is understandable. We all go through it and most of us make it out of the other side realizing how ignorant we were.
Not in the case of AOC, obviously.
Fuentes's biggest fuck up is his swallowing of the identity politics poison pill. Identity politics fit perfectly into the youthful mindset of "it's someone's else's fault," and he has integrated it seamlessly into his agenda.
And that agenda is attractive to other young people for the same reasons.
Fuentes has practised presenting himself as an authority and that is something that people in their late teens and early twenties are still vulnerable to.
"Minds of mush," as Rush Limbaugh famously said.
Once again we all go through it. The problem is that while we are in that stage we won't listen to older people that have already experienced it and are trying to warn us.
People on the "right" are just as woke as the left when they adopt a bogeyman. It doesn't matter if it's the white man, or blacks, or jews.
Watch these clips I'm going to post. Many of his followers will tell you they're taken out of context or that they're just jokes, but then they will often regurgitate the exact same rhetoric in the next few statements.
Most people when presented with the above content immediately pivot to attacking benny johnson, whoever the hell that is.
It wouldn't matter if Bozo the Clown posted it. It's Fuentes's own words, document in writing and on video, and he still pushes the same stuff to this day.
I don't know. I plan on checking him out, but haven't had time.
