I remember seeing him speak. He's kind of a hardass. But he is certainly dedicated.

I actually like his education perspectives. I just don't like the idea of using the persecutory complexes to garnish loyalty. To me it's highly unethical and is an emotional manipulation toward youth and adults. I dislike the whole idea of making others feel hated when most of the time it is untrue but sometimes there is good merit to the claims however good approaches seem to resolve it. I really just like the more positive and unity driven approaches and not that of despondency manifesting.
