I think there's something about him for both liberals and conservatives to sympathize with him on.
For liberals, the fact that he wanted to fight to take humanity back into a time before big industry and big oil took over the world and created pollution, deforestation, destruction of nature, destruction of ecosystems, and possibly global warming.
For conservatives, the fact that he was fighting against dystopian futurism, AI, big technology, big government, urbanization, university indoctrination, and a transition to industrial and technological centralization and dehumanization.
J.R.R. Tolkien for one would be proud of him.
