I know it's not the case with most of them...but what's the deal with Bernie supporters becoming weird on various issues? There were multiple on 261, multiple I know personally, and a long list of public figures.
A lot of people have realized that both US political parties are rotten to the core, not just socialist/leftist, but individuals of all sorts of political view points. To many Bernie was an independent alternative to mainstream corporate politicians. This was also one of Trump's main draws, it's why the Republican party fractured, and it's why many Trump supporters were also Bernie supporters

What the fuck happened to Andre, I don't remember him being like this a few years ago.
The COVID lockdowns broke him. I remember him going from being fairly reasonable to regurgitating right wing talking points in regards to the lockdowns. He also pushed that COVID was no worse than a cold at one point.

The lockdowns and the explosion in OnlyFans. Dude has some weird hangups on human sexuality to the point he wants porn banned because "it gives women an alternative source of income that employers can exploit as justification for shitty wages". That was an actual fucking thing said

You obviously know who he is, like you he too posts on the PWB. I think it was him who had a sig that read something like "Retired from Active GameFAQs posting" or words to that effect, but he continued to post.

He's posted on the UK board too, acting like he knows more about the UK than those who live here

Transphobic, misogynist, sexphobic, deeply ignorant, and pseudo-intellectual.

Not only no loss, but a huge gain. Anywhere Andre is absolutely sucks because hes there. GameFAQs is so much better with him gone and I feel bad for the people who have to suffer him in real life.

But, yes, he's 'corrected' me a few times about life in the UK.

Andre is a strange one. Some of his opinions were reasonable, some were most definitely not, and some were flat out bonkers.

Yes. He often referred to things that were clearly sexual assault as "sexual harassment," and things that were clearly sexual harassment as "no big deal."

And he even acted very insulting towards people who were sexually harassed, arguing they should just "suck it up" and that's "what a normal workplace is."

For example, he literally tried to argue that "bitch" is acceptable language in the workplace, as long as you weren't blatantly attempting to disrespect a woman. He literally argued that using "bitch" in any other case was not only acceptable, but "normal" workplace rhetoric. And the reason he argued this is because he wanted to lessen the ability for a woman to complain about being called a "bitch," since, in his words, "a bitch can be anyone, it's not necessarily sexist language, and therefore she can't complain because he's probably just treating her like his guy friends."

Thank you very much. I have always considered you a fantastic poster on these boards.

Honestly: I have had a pretty big case of imposter syndrome ever since I graduated law school. I doubt myself all the time. But I have been with the same group for 15 years and head of the legal department for 10, so I guess I have everyone fooled pretty good.

What are you talking about? Every single Right wing poster was a super successful rich lawyer. Yes every single one of them. They where all making 7 figures. Which is why they spent all thier time making alts and shit posting. Because that is what happy people do in thier free time.

He got pretty insufferable there towards the end.

He would still have his good takes at times, but the majority of his time seemed spent on defending and excusing everything/one associated with Catholicism and decrying taking children to any form of drag show because it started out as burlesque and thus has an inherent sexual component to it in modern times.

If drag queens were actively sashaying while shoving their crotches into the faces of children you can be damn sure the parents who took their kids to those shows would be speaking out. Curious how the only ones accusing it of being perverted and corrupting children are people who only seek to demonize their shows and the subculture itself.

I always found it amusing how staunch of a defendant he is in regards to Catholicism and how much he demonizes drag queens/shows considering I'd leave any future child(ren) I have in the care of drag queens before I ever would any sort of Catholic authority figure or clergyman. And the data for who's actually harming/has harmed children supports my decision.
