Remember when he called that diver in Thailand a pedophile because the diver (one of the most experienced cave divers in the world) called his idea dumb as shit? That's why I don't like him (well, one of the many many reasons, but a big one).
- memish 5y agoI didn't like that either, but put it in context. It's 1 of 17,000 tweets. There aren't many users with that many tweets who haven't lost their cool and called someone else a name. It's one of the most common things you see on twitter. Not excusing it, just saying it's worth looking at in context and importantly it's not something he's repeated.
