I reckon it's put on.
A deliberate one eye'd take, specifically in response to things like sky news.
It's not about airing facts, but moving the Overton window.
I feel the same way about Richard Stallman; he's an impractical zealot.
But by taking his extreme positions, it's provided room for others to achieve real good in open source.
Jordies doesn't care about the overton window. If he did, he wouldn't spend nearly as much effort lying about how electoral politics works in order to put down the Greens as he does.
