I don't understand why you picked me to reply to. I just said I like the guy and his books. I'm sorry if I gave the impression that he could "do no wrong".
But damn, it's nice to have a major fantasy author who doesn't write a bunch of really gross shit about women or queer people.
I get that it sucks that he gives so much money to the mormon church, and that's totally a fair thing to be upset about, but saying that he "donates money to hate groups" is kinda baitey.
As far as leading fantasy authors go, unfortunately this is about as good as it gets in terms of fair representation and avoiding liberal/monarchist :brainworms:
I get that you might not like him, but there's not a need to be inflammatory just because some stranger on the internet likes something you don't.

because it is your comment which i found distasteful and to which i was directly replying? what?
i dont understand why you picked me to reply to. just because i wrote the comment you're replying to? seems a lil sus :thonk:
you said he's "cool" and "literally just some dude who writes cool books." i take issue with that framing.
