1) Getting followers/fans is not an accomplishment, unless you consider (say) Snooki "more accomplished" than your hero.
2) He didn't suffer because he stood for something, he suffered because he got caught, which he didn't foresee. Subtle difference. Too bad he couldn't handle it.
- rexreed 14y agoIt would seem to me that the caliber of those that support him and speak for him are of a different type than those that support and follow Snooki. The ones certainly that are speaking up for him now and have given him respect are certainly ones that I respect. And I know him as much, or as little, as you, so I don't idolize or hero worship him -- I'm fairly new to this whole conversation. I wouldn't presume that he would be my hero any more than I would assume he is your nemesis. I'm just not as ready to denounce someone I know so little about. I am not saying that your points are incorrect, it is just that they don't acknowledge that those that DO indeed know him well have chosen to put their faith and support in him, regardless of whether or not he was as unaccomplished or as malicious as you say he was.
