That's the thing. Is that who he really is? Because he seems to have this idealistic version of life which only exist in the lives of wealthy white people.
Something about him has always struck me as odd and I could never place my finger on it until now.
All I can say to that is that I'm white but at no point have been wealthy and my view aligns with his on both the issues you mention. My heart/mind, however you say it, just can't work that way.
I don't really know anything about him other than what he puts out there. He does stand out to me as well, but I just think that he is a true bleeding heart, someone with a really remarkable personality. Kind of an example of the type of person you aspire to be but fall short of. His temperament in confrontational situations is something I certainly lack, but that serves him so well.
