an update and good news as far as the right wing propaganda machine finding it harder to run wild with this: dude was not a student and tells local media that he is a neo-Nazi, straight-up
> Polyak admitted that he had come to the university “to troll.” He said he had wandered into the classroom out of boredom, then decided to confront the lecture.
>
> “I went in and started saying this class is degeneracy, all this stuff,” he said. When asked directly if he identified as a neo-Nazi, he responded, “Yes.”
...
> University officials confirmed that Polyak is not a student and said he will be banned from campus. They provided a statement saying, "The incident on Wednesday in which an individual interrupted a lecture in Kane Hall while apparently making Nazi salutes and hurling insults at the instructor and students is completely unacceptable. The instructor and several students from the class followed the person until UWPD personnel arrived and took him into custody. The individual is not a UW student, and we will be issuing a ban from campus.
it will *probably* be a little harder to sell that to people as a moral panic on college campuses now
(a bit concerning he felt comfortable saying so openly under his own government name, tho)
