wow. i've met his son David and interacted a small amount with a couple of his grandchildren. this was in very poor taste. and i really hate some of the things he was responsible for!
- janalsncm 1y agoIt sounds like you are saying they were nice people in person despite their public personas. To me, one’s actions in the real world matter a lot more than being friendly at an interpersonal level. How that translates in the spiritual realm is another question. A lot of religious texts focus on interpersonal behavior, so maybe friendly people with disastrous public policies would be judged accordingly.
- surgical_fire 1y agoIf an awful person has children it is of poor taste to say they were awful?
- alabastervlog 1y agoEspecially if one of the children's David Friedman. Yeesh.
- mrguyorama 1y agoIf you are good to your friends, that doesn't make you a good person. Being a good person requires being good to your enemies, your victims, your oppressees, your ideological opponents. Do you know how many actual murderers have people lining up to say "But they were so nice"?
