I like how Fonz has pivoted from not giving examples of great things Kirk said to defending the things he said and somehow making them worse.

I will say, the quote of Kirk about the Civil Rights Act being “a mistake” is accurate, but more in the context that it was not written properly. He agreed with some protections for black people but doesn’t like that it led to DEI. Basically, we shouldn’t keep the black man down, but don’t help him up neither.
