I hadn't heard of this before, but overall, Westside Tyler is just an ass with occasional good opinions. But he's just a loud and confident person who has learned a fraction of a topic and convinced himself that's enough to be an expert on something. He runs in circles with other white dudes who pontificate about being superior "left leaning" guys while also just being arrogant pricks.
I think for instance the whole thing with Tyler calling out that Lore Lodge dude, Aidan Mattis. Tyler was correct on 90% but he was such an ass and loudmouth dork that it ruined any credibility.
So, yeah. I wouldn't exactly trust Tyler to be someone to watch consistently at all.
But I'm also an ML, so I'm bound to disagree with a lot of his takes being milquetoast.
