the word 'vague' comes to mind. the only clue to the direction of his monologue lies, IMO, with the term 'egalitarian', a word which, at least for the duration of the video, remains undefined. i will assume the merriam-webster definition of the word 'egalitarianism'. in that case, my conclusion is that the monologue is self-contradictory.
