With the way people are talking about him you'd think he went on college campuses saying we need to start gunning down certain ethnicities. I didn't follow Charlie's career uber closely. What I've seen of his takes I disagreed with pretty much all of them. And thought a lot of them silly on top of being objectively wrong. But I hadn't seen something I'd consider vile or mean-spirited with the intent to cause harm. And the guy was willing to go to college campuses and extend an olive branch and try to have conversations with people. He wasn't going there to spew vile hatred or call for the discrimination or elimination of others. He had his beliefs and wanted to express why he felt strongly about them. Perhaps if he had lived he would have changed some of his beliefs. Richard Hanania, for example, went from a guy who would spew white supremacist talking points to doing a complete 180 and basically becoming a guy who regularly argues against Trump and his administration and going after racists and bigots.
If he had been a guy who was going around speaking about how we need to wipe specific demographics off the face of the earth, I'd be far more inclined to agree with you. But from what I've seen of him I'd call him a naive man, at times an ignorant man, perhaps and unlearned man, but not a hateful man.
