Going back to the Derek Black story, it's worth noting that they knowingly sent him to an extremely liberal college because it had a strong history program and Derek wanted to study that.
People actually called into the radio show asking if Don was worried about Derek getting brainwashed. Don's response was to laugh at the notion and be like "if anyone changes their views, it'll be them." Yeeeeaaahh, how'd that end up working out?
It's been noted before how easily Derek was persuaded to the opposite side, but it's one of those things that gets dumber the more you analyze it. Also worth noting is the fact that Derek didn't simply walk away from white nationalism; he became an all-around cuck who went on about "white privilege" and claimed that his politics aligned 97% with Hillary Clinton's. It's possible that he's simply overcompensating for his past, but given everything else that happened, I'd not be surprised if he unironically believed that stuff.
And that's hilarious for a multitude of reasons. On one hand, I love how much that must eat away at Don inside. On the other, lol what a cuck.
