- mlindner 3y agoAfter he got fired by Zuckerberg you mean, after the media lied about and dragged his name through the mud. He's recently called that company his "life's work" https://twitter.com/PalmerLuckey/status/1729781270572413123 https://twitter.com/PalmerLuckey/status/1729781270572413123 > Palmer you’re above seeming paranoid about reporters all the time > > I am not, I promise you! > > Getting fired from your own life-work company after egregiously false reporting from hateful journalists really changes your perspective.

(unsure if it was a defamation / cancel-culture campaign against him, tbh)
