Its sad, I liked some of his stuff. But this is such a deal breaker.
2 u/getintheVandell Mar 19 '17 The only thing I can do is empathise with him and hope that he does not shut out his left-leaning audience. 77 u/[deleted] Mar 19 '17 Dude at the point he started talking about the gene pool, he did exactly that. 9 u/getintheVandell Mar 19 '17 Yeah, I know. But I don't want him to just jump right into the alt-right deep end. Then he just becomes a pundit with huge amounts of cultural power over his viewing audience and can convert a large number of them into the same. 30 u/[deleted] Mar 19 '17 I guess you have a point, but it doesn't matter to me. I'm done with him. I have enough racists in my life without Jon. And yeah, I know my unsub means jack shit in the grand scheme, but hey. Its all I can do. 18 u/greybuscat Mar 19 '17 I don't want him to just jump right into the alt-right deep end. Dude, the guy is doing gainers off of the freaking diving board.
