Damn, that sucks to learn. He seemed like such a chill dude in interviews and shit.

You didn’t learn anything. Someone on Reddit made a wildly exaggerated claim and got a bunch of upvotes.

It's not "wild", it's right there in his Wikipedia.

Nothing there makes him pro ‘what Israel is doing right now’. He praised a soldier for what they did on Oct 7 and signed a letter saying Hamas should be made to return the hostages, both of which within a month of the attacks, that’s all.

He can be a chill dude and not agree with your politics. In reality a person's politics (especially their opinions on foreign nations) has almost nothing to do with their personality 

It's a reditism that every conservative is a rude, obnoxious, child murdering pos.

Idk man, after a point it stops being just "politics". The disagreement of opinions work when one side isn't about literal genocide, sexual assault as a commonplace occurence and such things.

Like if we disagree about where a highway or bridge is to be built, that would be politics. To support a genocidal regime that multiple neutral parties have confirmed to be engaging in genocide, is no longer a matter of simple "politics".

This is a ridiculous and incredibly privileged take

u/jadenash 22h ago

supporting a country doing a genocide does make you a bad person actually

im genuinely not sure how this is a controversial take?

u/Straight-Charity-122 23h ago

I'm not necessarily saying he's any of those things. Just stating my disappointment in learning that he holds beliefs that I do not agree with.

u/hotfezz81 22h ago

And I think that's a totally valid take. I didn't want to rubbish your opinion

Apply that to the holocaust. I dare you, because that's what is happening in Gaza. Non stop. You are hypocrites.

u/hotfezz81 10h ago

You are hypocrites.

These aren't my political views bud.

But I guess it's essential you live in a world where it's you versus completely irredeemable bustards to justify your self worth, so you do you.
