He's not wrong but is not going to be popular this week. Sort of like when he started praising Trump  :palm:

I am livid that they are projecting their racism onto me.

THIS.

Not just terms, but things you say. They are the ones that see *insert ism here* into everything everyone says, and then proceed to call that person a *insert ist here*. And then the muppets on twitter pile on without even thinking or bothering to ask the person if they meant any *insert ism here* by it.
Don't ask me how I know this for a fact...

Another classic example of how polarised people are and how they project things onto people.
Adam's didn't praise Trump back in the day, he merely analysed his speech and mannerisms and persuasive skills etc (he is educated in this field) and based on this predicted that Trump would win when no one was else predicting that. But because of Trump derangement syndrome, you aren't even allowed to discuss stuff like that or you are instantly branded a Trump supporter. He instantly lost almost all his speaking gigs as a result.
Nuance and rational discussion and analysis in anything is dead.
