    Honestly I tried to find hearsay of Keanu being an asshole and I never could. Every time someone is widely loved I always assume people are just dumb and miss the signs of said person being a piece of shit. With Keanu, I don't know.

      Cases of hero worship that turned out to be good anyway: Fred Rogers, Keanu Reeves, Bill Nye

      Borderline cases: Bob Ross (weird disingenuous brand shit, embroiled in legal battles over rights to techniques he taught and marketed)

      Giant pieces of shit: literally everyone else the internet likes

        I hate that there are zero women or people of color I can put on this list (although Keanu is biracial so there's that I suppose)

        It is since you've seen them be wrong/misinformed/not informed at all so many times. The single most infuriating aspect of humanity is that we buy the press people write about themselves and judge by civility instead of morality.
