Lean HP, since he comes off as abrasive and overbearing to me, even though my interactions with him have been limited. I think he puts too much effort into his posts, particularly when he's trying to rebut other people's arguments. Some of his arguments don't make that much sense.
I stand by my earlier assessment, as I've had one additional interaction with him (regarding Cornel West) since I made this post, and I don't think he understood (or made an effort to understand) what I was trying to argue. Again, I think he needs to be more considerate of others, and less abrasive with his approach.
And two months on, my opinion of him has gotten even worse, to the point that he's now on my ignore list. I was trying to converse with him about why Berniecrats and progressives are holding their noses to support Biden, and he lumped me in with them, disregarding my points in his typical arrogant and condescending manner. I got tired of dealing with him after that. He's a definite HP now.
