If you listen you can take some good out of those messages before it gets extreme.
1. Economics. I think this is his best message. Save your money. Have a family, don't party and invest. Common conservative messaging.
2. Marriage. He goes into how feminism has failed and women are miserable chasing that and would be happier getting married and having kids. Ties into religion too. Now that can be seen as anti-women, keeping women in the kitchen. But as a women, i do see the extreme the other way. Women chasing status and careers, representing feminism, breaking barriers, but that's alot of pressure and they are miserable. So he's not totally wrong.
3. Religion. He's extreme on abortion and gay rights but that Christians protecting marriage
4. Guns. Pro guns, protecting 2nd amendment. A few shootings ok but the bigger picture needs to be protected so he got shot
5. Immigration. Very anti illegal immigration but that's the standard conservative stance. Wouldn't you want to vet who can live in your house?

What's your take on his take that the civil rights movement was a mistake and that empathy for other humans is a weakness?
