Twitter leftist: I want landback, I want decolonization, I want to end capitalism, by any means necessary! Except the media must remain untouched, and no one from the bourgeoisie must he harmed in any way. People like Lenin and Castro did that and they're all evil authoritarian dictators.
Nathan Fielder: Okay.
Damn I thought it said in the show that it was a DUI, I must have misremembered. Also though, I'm pretty sure the mall didn't do the background check but rather Nathan did and informed the mall, thus them saying no and providing the necessary drama for the episode.
He does say it's a misdemeanor from a DUI, but when I googled it, the marijuana thing came up. Apparently he was also on the run in Mexico for a while (still making money as Papa Noel) but then the federales helped catch him. I guess they asked if they wanted him extradited and they were like "No, he's a U.S. citizen, just deport him" which kinda doesn't make sense to me, but it's what I read.
edit: oh shit I guess that was after the episode aired... https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/article/Santa-Claus-pleads-guilty-to-12199201.php
Damn that's interesting
yeah, really sucks for him though, I liked him in that episode and tell myself he's a libertarian socialist grandpa (hopefully at least... not a :libertarian-approaching: )
I guess he got 18 months back in 2018 for it hopefully he got out of prison before covid hit...
