But he has a lot to say that noone else is touching.

He is most definitely an extreme nutcase, and that's part of the problem.
He does have a lot to say, and he'll make sense for a few pages and then
something totally loonie will come out of his mouth. The problem is that
this now marginalizes most of the good points that he has.

Admittedly you can say the same thing about some mainstream politicians on

His advocacy of nuclear fusion research has almost singlehandedly resulted
in fusion research now getting categorized as a loonie idea among the
political set due to his association with it. This is bad, because nuclear
fusion technology may well have a real future.
