I don't really agree, I can't recall any controversial videos of his that weren't cruel and bordering on hate speech. This is not "bit of a dick sometimes" it was some really nasty and mean-spirited stuff aimed at minorities. These weren't one-off comments either, they were entire videos. I don't think you can chalk that up to ideological lines.

First thanks for the civil way you're discussing this. These sort of topics easily get heated.
I'm probably seeing this through an ideological lense myself.
I think his nastiest attack was on Cenk from the young Turks. No body seemed to care about that. But I could be wrong.

I don't know about this latest video but the previous video that got this person banned was a video suggesting that trans women are rapists using a crude stereotype of trans women. I've also seen a number of other comments made by him attacking trans women that apparently he was warned for earlier. If he was aware of these issues, he doesn't seem to have made an effort to learn why this pattern of behavior is offensive.
