To me he seems like a guy who has an unhealthy obsession with the internet like many other people (myself included), but he has enough money to buy the biggest platform upon which to shitpost.
I think a fair amount of that is down to his autism. But, again, I have zero issue with people being able to say whatever they want, as long as it isn't a direct incitement. I'd much rather someone tells me who they really are then hide behind a mask.
