Why are you so hell-bent on defending the Nazi?

I'm not saying he isn't terrible. I'm saying he didn't show that he was until recently. The first I think we saw of it was the Thai cave rescue crap in 2018. All I'm seeing is replies saying "here he is acting bad 4 years later"

there's evidence of his views going waaay back, they just rarely reached the mainstream...and now it's just obvious, so there's a lot of people genuinely surprised because he used to at least thinly veil his awful views.

but it was always there...

He was involved with paypal, that's how you know he's been pos for a long time.

What was historically that wrong with paypal? /gen

It's not a bank so they don't have to follow banking rules. Historically businesses and sellers have had a hard tome with paypal locking their accounts and refusing to release them. They've put countless people out of business because of this.
