The goof in the red sweater who asked a question at the debate..and suddenly made a media darling...turns out to be a bit of a pervy arsehole.

Jesus fcking Christ! This right here is everything that's wrong with this country.

This guy becomes an overnight celebrity for briefly returning this election to close to sanity for actually asking a policy question, and was placed on a pedestal because of it. And now he has to be torn down as he's less than perfect.

This country deserves Donald Trump, it really does.

It was rather redundant, wasn't it.

Anyway, point being Ken Bone's Reddit history is ****ing TAME compared to what you'll see in the real weird corners of that site. If that guy thinks Ken Bone is bad, he's obviously never encountered a brony.

Right. I mean why does anyone care that some random guy who happened to ask a question at a debate has some questionable opinions. It's not news. If you dug deep enough into anyone's lives you'd find the same, including sanctimonious "journalists" such as this clown who wrote this.

It's always been like this, the difference these days is it's recorded on the internet forever more, whereas before it would just be something you'd say to your mates over a couple of beers.

No..he is an example of what happens when people make a celebrity out of someone they know squat about simply because he looked so nice in his red sweater asking a question. Too many are to quick to put someone on a pedestal for the most unjustifiable reasons. Just an opinion. Anyway..apparently a new Trump accuser is coming forward today...so that's surprising..not.

I agree, he shouldn't have been put on a pedestal in the first place, and for that I blame the utter shitshow that this election has become, that any shred of normalcy is seen as amazing.

But that doesn't justify this bullshit of fake outrage when a normal guy who didn't ask for any of this actually turns out to be a normal guy.

Wait a minute. I thought he was the guy who asked them to each say something nice about the other.

No, he asked a question about energy policy.

I agree. My objection was to anyone in a similar circumstance being placed on a pedestal without rational justification. And yes..he is likely just a fairly normal guy that the internet effectively tossed to the sharks...however unintential. Exactly why ai would never want to be in his position. I'd have to go into hiding. Lol

Oh. WGAF about him? Why is he the "star" of the debate? Because he wore his Christmas clothes in October?

He did an AMA (ask me anything, for the non-reddit people), and he is just a normal guy. He talked a great deal about charities that help the homeless and promoted those, yet the Daily Beast conveniently ignored that.

And seriously, is 'grown man likes porn and is attracted to women' a crime now? I'm sure the author has wanked to worse.
