Any proof that he is right winger, that's not made by some fundamentalist?

Because last bullshit I read is that he was right wing because he liked technology...

    I read he complained about "woke" a lot.

    What I read is his friends identified him as economically leftist, but took issue with identity politics

    Identity politics will be the downfall of democracy if Democrats don't stop that bullshit

    The problem with that is that oppression injustice, and inequity are often based on a person‘s identity

    I don't believe that the democrats actually based their entire platform on identity politics. That's more a right wing issue, in that they have an issue with the existence of certain groups of people.

    I don't remember seeing a trans person as a speaker at any of the rallies for the DNC, for instance.

    I wouldn't say "right-winger" - he was apparently a "rationalist" aka gray tribe, a loose philosophy that places rational thinking above ideologies.

    Don't think so. "For the greater good" - heavily associated with left wing - is a rationalist take.

    they are peter-thiel-style libertarians and "race realists", among the most extreme of the far right you can get. that very term "grey tribe" comes from an essay by scott alexander who consistently goes to bat for racist and fascist causes. there's nothing remotely left about them.

    The idea of being a 'rationalist' or 'realist' is literally almost always just one finding excuses to not call themselves nihilists
