I wonder about his politics, tbh. I def don't listen to every episode, so I can't say I know his views in and out, but from what I've heard, he's rejected authoritarianism on enough issues in the past to make me feel like he's not full tankie. Wish I had some specific examples to reference off top, but i don't.

I may look for some instances that assuaged my tankie skepticism and post em here, but I'm also def not trying to win converts for the show or its host.

I got some good bits out of this episode regardless. I think it's worth a listen for anyone interested in Fred Hampton and his story.
