    Pretending Kirk was an important figure, even in MAGA is a weird thing for people on the left. He was a college campus agitator, and not even the most prominent one of those. Your comments are a caricature of militancy.

      Lying to yourself that he wasn’t one of the most globally recognisable names in the alt-right pipeline is ridiculous.

      Fact is the dude has had a decade or so of helping lead up to the stage of the world today. Far more “important” than probably 99% of the world in terms of his effect on it.
