    I never said he was maga. I said current evidence cannot place him neatly into any political box. Here are some of the sources I checked while writing my previous comment, so feel free to read them yourself.

    MSN

    NPR

    ABC

    CBS

    BBC Okay this one says he was leaning left-wing and gay/trans-rights, according to his Mormon mother (Mormons are a religious cult that tends to lean conservative and anti-gay rights). You can decide for yourself whether you want to trust her judgement on this.

    It might be hard to notice from outside America, but right-wing media has been slowly and deliberately converting itself into a massive propaganda machine over the last 40-50 years. We’ve finally reached the point where facts barely matter in those circles, and anyone in a place of authority can dump whatever they want to be true into the public consciousness. You should take what you read from right-wing sources with a huge grain if salt.

    Also, if he had a clear left-wong ideology, you’d expect to see some people on the internet deifying him like Luigi Mangione.

      Yeah, to the Mormon mom, he’s probably a leftist extremist now because he lived with a trans person and didn’t seethe with hate toward them.
