He reminds me of a kid I knew at school who would always do the grossest things on a dare. Ironically he's probably developed the most amazing immune system known to humanity, but that's another story.
Fox strikes me as not just stupid but, forgive the terminology, but slow. I hate ablist language but there is something about him that is a combination of incredibly gullible and, well, slow.
I don't mean to equate limited capacity with stupidity either, I'm just struggling for the right words. I'm happy to retract this post if need be, however I maintain that he strikes me as someone being manipulated by others. Someone woefully naive who has cottoned on to the current woke culture wars grift. Sadly, as demonstrated by his performance on QT, he's not interested in learning and just wants to play the victim when it's painfully obvious he isn't. Now it could all be a carefully confected scam, and it is, I just don't think he's the sole operator or architect. Especially given what's involved in running for mayor and setting up a political party.
