"Benz, in his public posts and appearances, has not espoused the same racist views as Frame Game. A review of "Frame Game" posts and appearances from 2017 to 2018 ran the gamut of alt-right causes from rants against social justice movements, the media and Disney films, to praise for Trump and odes to cryptocurrency."[3]
