I don't think GG has ever claimed to be a leftist; he's been a pretty standard civil libertarian for as long as I can remember. He's also had his brain poisoned from being way too online and is either addicted to the attention or actually makes real money from being an extremely annoying contrarian.

Jaxyon posted:I think he's been pretty consistently a racist no real need to say contrarian or "brain poisoned". The only benefit of the doubt he gets was because he was a stopped clock about the also racist US government and Bolsonaro I think the racism is a separate (but very real) issue from the increasingly esoteric positions and feuds he works himself into due to constant Twitter namesearching.

Epicurius posted:When they told him about the story, he had told them it was no big deal, and refused to take any sort of involvement in it. Besides, he had founded the thing. While he had stepped back from a big role by that point, he still could have asked that basic levels of security be followed. That's a stretch. There are plenty of things to dislike about GG without blaming him for something that wasn't under his purview. Betsy Reed deserves most of the blame for Reality Winner's fate (and Trump and Biden for refusing to pardon her).
