Everything ive seen from him is pretty cool. permalink fedilink source parent [–] rumba@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 months ago (3 children) Yeah, he's been through so much shit, you read his book and you just hurt for him. He went back years later and redid his book, apologizing for all the insensitive things he had written because he was younger and didn't have the proper perspective. I don't always agree with him on everything, but damn, he's trying and usually pulling it off. He actually joined Lemmy back before it took off and got collectively driven off by the indigenous Lemmings and swore the platform off. He made like one post and was ridiculed by so many asshats. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 months ago He actually joined Lemmy back before it took off and got collectively driven off by the indigenous Lemmings and swore the platform off.

I guess that's a lesson in de-anonymizing oneself on an anonymous forum, especially as a public figure. It makes me wonder if he's still here interacting on various alt accounts. I wonder if I've ever engaged with him without even knowing it... Hey wait. Are you him‽‽‽ permalink fedilink source parent [–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 child) that sounds about right for lemmy permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago He came back when the tankies and conservatives were the only kids on the playgound. He'd have a fair shot now-a-days I think. Well he'd at least have more supportors and defenders than asshats permalink fedilink source parent
