He says he hopes it isn't him, not that it lends evidence against it.

I understand but that’s a strange hope a bit based on his twitter bring too right-wing or libertarian than he would prefer, yet those beliefs are actually very consistent with a lot of Satoshi’s known leanings and beliefs. The block zero comment is pretty libertarian for example and many of his comments on email lists are also. So it’s a bit illogical for the OP to hope for otherwise.

I'm a libertarian Bitcoiner myself, and I hope it's not Szabo.

You can be right libertarian without being a xenophobe or an outright racist.

I guess I missed the xenophobia and racism in his twitter feed. That wouldn’t surprise me however I’m just not sure what you are referring to specifically.
