What if we separated his work from himself? I don't know Eric enough. I know he is right wing, but not sure if he is racist. Suppose he is a racist, can't his text about being a hacker be great? I read "How to become a hacker" in 2014. It is awesome and he does not say anything about woman and race on the text. According to some historians, Da Vinci was a dushbag. Should we ignore his crafts just because, apparently, he was a bad person? I don't think so.
