As I’ve said before, his heart’s in the right place. He can just be overzealous and dogmatic in pushing his ideas and seems absolutely convinced he is not only right about most everything, but morally superior to those who disagree, who are often dismissed out of hand as bigots/fascists/whatever allows him to proceed to label them as a “bad guy” and therefore ignore everything they say. Very quick to jump to black/white, good/evil kind of thinking. Ironically religious and puritanical in a sense, he maybe fits the stereotype of the “Social Justice Warrior” better than anyone else here.
That all said? He’s smart, he’s got a strong moral compass, and as I’ve also said before, many of his faults I shared to a degree myself when younger. So I can hardly call him an HP.
