When I first learned about him a decade or so ago, I listened to him on my morning walk for a week or two (note to self, you need to start walking again, F the treadmill). At the time there was this big ruckus about him refusing to use gender-neutral pronouns, which I think is what brought him to prominence. Anyway, if he's background noise and you're not paying super attention to what he says, at first he can come off as being somewhat of an intellectual. Upon further reflection, however, he is is no way so.

At the time he had a huge and growing following of mostly younger college educated males.
