@flamingkeys@fosstodon.org Well we are talking about who is now vs who he was then. I too find him an insufferable human **now** but found many of his arguments sound in the past. Even now that I dislike him if i review some of his past arguments they still make a lot of sense whereby the ones he makes now are just lacking any real criticality.

It very well could be you are experiencing a similar effect, judging him on his behavior in the present and having that overshadow how he might have reasoned about things in the past.
