Because he is the perfect poster boy for the radical left and on top of that he has a bunch of powerful connections to radical left-wing idols like Chunk Yoghurt.
He ticks the woke victim and diversity boxes close to perfectly:
1. Shitskin of some sort
2. Worships a desert pedophile
3. Not raised in the USA and born to pedophile worshippers
4. Long-time connection to media left wingers, someone for sure has enough dirt on him to bury him alive should it ever be necessary

5. He is too low IQ to ever have any strong convictions, do deep research on his own, question narratives supporting his own, or realize when he is being manipulated or used, he genuinely thinks all his success and all his ideas are his own because he is just that smart, skilled, and good at what he does.
