How do you view the boycotts against South Africa then in retrospect?
Especially if you consider his style "hyper-aggressive", I then wonder
how you'd characterize the former.

(I should note that I don't share nor agree with your characterization
of him, at all.  It's clear you haven't read or seen much of him, like
his appearances in some videos; see YouTube.)
