I was not under the impression that anything about what he was saying was difficult to understand, merely that it was poorly communicated, I do not see any original ideas here or concepts that have not been covered in more exacting details in various philosophy courses.

I don't mean to heap ad hominem on him, I'm simply pointing out that if one is trying to present their ideas then they ought to present them clearly without recourse to attempting to make themselves appear more complex and sophisticated. There are even examples on this very thread of people illustrating much the same ideas as in the original article in a better format.

From a personal perspective, I have a lot of sympathy for him, I watched the entire series of youtube videos about him and I find it something approaching an indictment of humanity that this guy is a bouncer.

I think your dismissive rebuke is just not digging deep enough.
