He's a bit of a tragic figure, terminally online dude who went down the alt right pipeline until he wouldn't publicly admit that the Nazis were bad. He used to openly support trans rights! What a mess.
It was definitely not a graceful fall. Hate to see it happen but, how can you be convinced against human rights? His beliefs must have been quite ephemeral to switch up like that.
I had my own son radicalized by Tik Tok's algorithms. With some parental guidance he managed to "break loose", but no, there was nothing wrong or fleeting with his views before that happened imho.
Extremely scary to watch.
Add to that radicalization pipeline bit the fact that obscene wealth like what Notch came into tends to be extremely socially isolating and directly causes people to lose touch with reality. Not to be like "oh the poor billionaires," but having that kind of money literally causes mental illness. For their own good, no one should be allowed to have that kind of money.
Yeah I agree, he just didn't have anyone by him in real life reminding of reality and had several people online reminding him of delusions
I think there is a 'not' too much - or do I read it wrong?
Yeah I missed that one. When I was writing it I changed my wording from "they should not be allowed," to "no one should be allowed," and missed a word. Thanks.
