You conveniently ignore my directly adjacent post where I make it clear that I found this "controversy" while attempting to learn more about the author.
The other commenters made him sound interesting, so I wanted to see what his life was like and it turns out that he supported a pedophile. Seems relevant to me as I would want to know that about an author if I'm going to start reading their books.
Apparently these facts about him are just "random shit."
I could say you conveniently ignore the fact your comment was downvoted and flagkilled by other users. And like the other commenter, I'm trying to tell you why that happens - it's not, as you seem to think, because those users are keen on supporting an abuser.
Obviously I didn't ignore the fact that it was downvoted because I specifically mentioned it. I just don't derive my opinions from group consensus or magic internet points. I stand by what I wrote, for the reasons I explained.
I understand the argument you are attempting to make, I just don't buy it.
That's a comment in a conversation
"I went to the Wikipedia page of someone I hadn't heard of and pasted the first thing I saw in 'Controversies' into a thread"
That's a shitpost.
To take nothing from the art of shitposting, this is a random messageboard for conversations, not a random messageboard for shitposting.
