I'm surprised you missed the point of my post. I'll try to include a neon sign next time.

Not dishonest. Did Lee take Gore's invitation to the extreme? Yes. And that's why it is irresponsible to use those words. Regardless, I don't think you will find any of those people who explicitly said they were inspired by someone on the list. You won't even get a one-way match. If you find it, I want a neon sign, damn it.

Well, considering that video had been viewed around 5 million times before Beck put it on his show, I'd say he didn't give the man a platform any larger than the one he already had.
Look, we can do this all day - and I don't want to.
I get it, Beck is a horrible person to you guys because his views don't represent your views. That's fine. We'll all vote in November and then we'll deal with those consequences.
