That crowd let him go for so long before flagging him out. The dude who started to think that maybe Mehdi had a point got yanked real fast.

Nazi support got laughs and side eyes, the visage of learning and thought got immediate red flags.

"It's too hard to contemplate ideas that challenge my world-view. Guess I'll just carry on being a piece of shit!"

More than that: someone else contemplating ideas is something to silenced and stopped. It isn't enough to just be a piece of shit: others must be kept shitty.
