    Oh man, he’s doing that shit now? Damn, you hate to see it. I outgrew him years ago, but he was influential in stopping me from falling down the alt right pipeline a decade ago and was my on ramp to progressive politics

      I’m sorry friend. I went down the same road, way back in the day with Christopher Dawkins. His book God Delusion got me out of my parents religious BS which was the starting point of my life improving. Now he is just yet another garden variety bigot.

      (oh god and fucking gaiman) 🤮

      But yeah, here is a video with clips if you wanna see for yourself. He wasn’t the only glazing but Kyle’s particularly brzaen glee, before and after he realized he was wrong, is just disgusting.

        Ugh, yeah, Dawkins. I remember leaving the God Delusion out when I was a teenager so my parents knew I was reading it and rebelling lol

        Life really is just continually being let down by white men you once thought were cool, huh?
