What are some of the things he said that were classified as that?
Someone below me posted a big video on that. Other than that it takes two seconds to Google. He has a history of saying extremely reactionary things (advocating for a straight pride parade, saying feminism is a disease, being transgender is just a mental illness etc.) And then walking it back which is weird that it happens over and over again. He also unironically believed in Qanon.
Maybe not an outright fascist bigot but however his social system and brain works, it leads him to fall face first over and over into extreme right wing reactionary takes.
An answer to this question which indicates it’s not a lie would be something like
My answer.
Sorry I’m not willing to put in effort to prove someone else’s claim.
I’ve tried in the past and googling in circumstances like this leads to nothing.
You can either be lazy enough to accept things at face value or take the time to verify people's claims, you can't really have both.
You're right, your ignorance is a choice.
