And I might have missed that racist stuff? Sometimes this thread adds a number of pages and I just skip a bunch. I’m not defending anything racist, to be clear. It reading post after post insulting the guy and saying how dumb he is just gets old, and it’s pointless. Then, in the next breath, someone will say “it would be great if someone would come in and defend the UCP…”. Why would anyone bother?

Yoho isn't the barometer of defending the UCP. They aren't even the measure of presenting a rational defence of conservatism. They are a blight on the board, and while I agree with jammies that the high-fiving dunking on insults of Yoho is juvenile and irritating, this is precisely the person deserving of shouting down.
Offering disinformation, misinformation, charlatans, grifters, and general racism, homophobia, transphobia, and fascist cheerleaders while displaying an absence of originality, thoughtful argumentation, and critical thinking is something that should be objectively rejected.
Contrarily, without blowing smoke up any unnamed anuses, your perspective is what contrarians should aspire. Don't defend this rotting potato when you're able to intelligently manage a balanced perspective.
This person is a caricature. The best thing anyone can do despite their political affiliations is ignore them.
