This seems more like a neocon pivot, which he seemed to be making BEFORE the allegations.

Kinda makes Brace's association with him a bit sus.

I wouldn't consider it a sus association so much as it was just the zeitgeist of 2020. He was the only notable gonzo journalist covering the gatherings the left was interested in but wouldn't attend ourselves. It's an ecological niche that still hasn't been filled well and the podcasts that featured him still don't do street interviews for the most part.

Yeah I generally just write it off as "Brace wanted to go on a road trip where he gets to interview weirdos and didn't realize the guy he was riding with was a sex pest neocon."
