      I don’t care about celebrity culture but I read the article and I am proud of him. Must have been tough growing up in the environment he did. He turned to drugs and made a lot of mistakes and hurt a lot of people. It sounds like he is doing the work, walking the steps and being honest with himself about who he is.

      I’m proud of anyone who gets the chance to do some serious self-reflection and decides to face their own toxicity and become a better person.

        You’re proud of him raping the Coreys? Yeah, it’s a rumor, but it’s a very strong rumor. And he’s not alone in the abuse the Coreys suffered.

          I don’t know if it is a strong rumor or not, I don’t follow this stuff. I don’t know what he did or didn’t do, only he really knows all that. He’s calling himself out on his own bad behavior, being honest about it and seems to want to make amends. I’m proud of him for that, yeah.

          That doesn’t mean I ok with everything he may or may not have done, it doesn’t serve me well to get angry over a rumor that has no bearing on my life and I have no control over.

          I think it is ok to be proud of someone who seems to want to be a better person. It would be great if the people who I feel have wronged me would apologize and try to make amends. I think we can show support for someone deciding to make that change in their life. Whether it is a legit change and he follows through with his commitment, only time will tell; but I want to believe it is and that’s ok.

          Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve seen his name, but I have seen him held up by red pill types in the past. I don’t know how much the lack of seeing his name is attributable to me learning to avoid places where red pills congregate versus him just becoming more and more irrelevant. Whatevs - still don’t much care.

    He was getting very vocal about 9/11 truth right before all the “crazy” started happening. I’m wondering if he was honeypotted in order to get people to stop taking him seriously.

      Sorry about the conspiracy to keep your comment suppressed, the Illuminati must really hate you.
