Yeah I've never got that kind of bad vibe from him. I also left out the part where he even touched on how privileged his life is and how grateful he is for that or how he said him being harassed for being transphobic is nothing like what LGBTQ+ people have to go through.

It's really shitty as it'd be cool to have someone like him showing up randomly on Lemmy like other celebs kind of do on Reddit (Arnold Schwarzenegger only one coming to mind at the moment).

Maybe he will give it another shot someday but I guess I don't see there ever not being a huge group of people waiting to harass him.

I read most of it (skimming some paragraphs) and it sounds like he got dog piled with "go fuck yourself Westley" and other memes constantly and also mass reported while being told to apologize for being transphobic (which he claims he isn't and says he has apologized for whatever made people think that but the demands for apology never stop).

Admin told him his account is banned because he doesn't want to deal with the reports Wil also was saying it wasn't just people from that instance who harassed him and in some places like a painting section he was welcomed and had some good experiences.

Overall he said it was a bad experience and that maybe because of his reputation he will never be able to enjoy social media when people know who he is.

I probably missed some stuff or maybe misunderstood some of what he said and obviously this is his reasons paraphrased.

FWIW I know very little about him outside of the memes. No idea why people think he is transphobic or any other reason they may hate him.

All kids are victimized but most conservatives don't care until it's their kid specifically. Kind of like most political issues that people who have empathy care about.

You should look up the meanings of "takeaway" and "mental gymnastics".

The person is requesting more information, who knows what their takeaway is or if they have even come to any conclusions yet.

I was thinking the same thing and assumed it was a serious post until I looked at the community name.

"Peggs" is just "Sggep" spelled backwards.

Well if i could work well sleeping and then live my life while awake that'd be pretty sweet.

Doubt that's what a lot of company owners would want but that is maybe the only plus side of this.

Same here, one of my childhood habits that I had never beat and forget existed but played a lot... I've gone back and beat a lot, seems like this might be the next.

Some people just want power and recognition which you don't get if you just travel and enjoy life.

I could also so it being pretty exciting being at the forefront of a new technology and wanting to put all the things you've learned or been researching to use vs just quitting and feeling like you're wasting that time you've put in. Probably doesn't feel like a job if this is the case.

They/them is gender neutral. People literally use it to avoid offending people by accidentally misgendering.

It's not like they went out of their way to say he or "they" to try and trigger people. She's also not here stating her "wish".

With all the actual assholes out there it's ignorant as fuck to be so reactionary on someone else's behalf when the person you're attacking is likely on the same side as you.

I'm sure there'd be no reaction at all if you called them they. Feel free to watch I guess since I did it.

Yeah, every cat I've had always make sure to get to carpeted floor if they're going to be sick and avoid puking on anything I'm trying to place in front of them to avoid it ending up on the carpet. Can't get sick on the easy to clean tiles.

Looks more like Rex Lee (who played Lloyd Lee on Entourage). Kind of don't think it's either of them.
