I have now, but that doesn't really change my mind. You have a point and it becomes a matter of semantics. I don't think it's actual malice in that he consciously wants to cause harm (on balance), but that he is so thoroughly misguided because of his own sense of infallibility, that he truly thinks he is a force for good in the world. Is that stupidity? It becomes a matter of definition. The video is too short and selective to really make any call based on it. "There are no 'ordinary' Russians on Twitter"? How can he tell? Maybe he has explained that in previous videos.
