That’s how you personally might classify him, but many would disagree with you. To my eye, for one, it seems quite obvious that Molyneux is a far-right figure.

Nah; I've listened to a number of his shows. He's a popular political commentator who is anti-communist/leftwing -- that's why they banned him.
You should check out some of the Stefan Molyneux quotes the SPLC has gathered: https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/indi...

An example:

> "Screaming 'racism' at people because blacks are collectively less intelligent...is insane."

These all have associated YouTube video links - which are now taken down it seems.

Well now the videos are gone and I can't verify that any of those quotes were truly said. Many of them such as the one liners are obviously missing context as well.
If we can't check the videos, how do we confirm the quotes were really said and in what context?

Racists: 1 Censorship: 0

I sense an implied “/s” in your post. But just in case, there are in-depth critiques that include significant portions of Molyneux’s videos still up: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd_nVCWPgiA

Certainly enough to get a sense for Molyneux’s ideology.
