Oh I generally agree. Like seeing him on Joe Rogan a few times you could tell how he was having almost too much fun with it, especially when he was trying to find some way to troll/torment Joe.

And in his early years, he would've found himself popular with some of the anti-war and anti-neocon left-wing sorts from back during that era.

And I generally agree, I don't think it's him or what he was saying specifically that made him such a tempting target. Besides the message it sent, I think it was almost personal, because of the kind of "loud" and anti-establishment sort that he represented and how the MSM and the elite have grown increasingly annoyed by people like him. Essentially, they wanted to bloody someone's nose, and he was the easiest gazelle they could pounce on.

I think another part is that leftists had something of a personal beef with the kind of anti-establishment sort that he represented. That same stuffy mentality that drives their "no fun allowed" police approach that we've been seeing almost regularly from the MSM and Democrats at large for the last decade or so.
