    For sure. I was in the “wait and see” category at first, but it’s pretty obvious at this point that it was a chud weaponizing SV to go after a leftist public figure.

      I'm the opposite.

      It had been a rumor that people parroted as fact on right wing channels until they all thought it was true (see also: Patton Oswalt killing his wife, etc.), and so when the allegations came out my first thought was, oh look a pol poster decided to actually make a go at him over this. Given how anonymous and sketchy the details were.

      But him refusing to just call it a right wing hoax has given me pause and made me wonder if there's truth to it.
