Yeh, Hinkle is a grifter of titanic proportions. I happen to agree with a lot of what I've seen him say on Gaza for example (I avoid him like the plague usually but see occasional tweets on other threads) but he will say whatever gets the most engagment, clicks, money and fame.

He started out surfing on the "Healthcare for all" movement online posturing as a progressive lefty, then came up with his "MAGA Communism Red/Brown alliance" bullshit, a more naked attempt to appeal to two audiences you will never see, and then he jumped on Gaza and rode the U.S. right's resurgent separatism to where he's become fairly prominent in the right-leaning alt-media sphere.

He will say whatever gets him paid the most. He's also a bit thick. I'm sure I agree with his take on Gaza (although it will certainly be someone else's take repackaged) but he's one person I just can't be bothered to watch or listen to.
