@tkinias @xpac @davidrevoy @jrod3737 anyway I felt pretty sad and disgusted when I first discovered this. Why couldn't somebody who discovers something amazing just be a non-shitty person?

yeah, agreed—there seems to be something very toxic in how we treat ‘genius’ men that encourages this kind of shittiness

As I’ve grown older I’ve come to understand people as universally flawed. It’s a matter of degree that makes someone heroic or villainous. Everyone has the stench of being fully human and chock full of mistakes and ugly bits.
But the ones who abuse others, most especially the vulnerable - those are the ones deserving a full account without the airbrush of nostalgia or grace.
