Or does he just have some hot/weird takes that got him in trouble?

Someone on Reddit told me he (Rovics) thinks Matthew Heimbach has reformed, for instance. Reading Heimbach's Wikipedia page he still sounds like a massive Nazbol to me (emphasis on the Naz)

I struggle to believe Rovics could make a mistake like that. I've listened to all his music, never seen him miss in a song that I can think of. Also talked to him prior to learning this and he seems cool to me

I'm suspended on Reddit for 3 days. That's why I'm asking here for now. Most charitable thing might be to ask Rovics to explain himself, but I'd have to make a Twitter account again

    My advice to the cancellers would be to go and talk to David instead of combating him. You combat liberals, not your comrades

    it's generally good practice to if you respect someone and want to maintain a relationship when annoyed with them first talk to them about it 1-1 on a human level before escalating things

      Wise. Trying to live more that way. Schopenhauer didn't do that for Hegel and instead seethed for 30 years after he was dead. Or maybe he didn't actually think much about Hegel and made a low effort jibe here and there. That'd fit

      Sneerclub tells me behaving like that is was if not fine, at least du jour then. I guess it is. Most of our faves were a bit that way. Marx for sure. Absolute poster of his day

          Oh shit true. Red Scare posters behave that way and are also generally wrong about most things

          Also cocaine is a bourgeois drug. That would have gone well. Oh well. Not crack obviously (never tried it) but maybe bad value due to low duration. Maybe doesn't fry your brain as badly as meth though
