Late Gen X, here. I'm embarrassed by the reactionary nonsense I've started to see regularly from my own generation. I'm lucky I didn't stay brainwashed with them.

The part that is problematic is lower down on the article:

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed but now they are full cities again," the multibillionaire owner of Tesla, SpaceX and X said.

I vote for The Road Warrior as the go-to for the Mad Max franchise.

He brought the same level of depth to the Andorians that Nimoy brought to the Vulcans. Iconic.

I catch this guy's shorts in my feed all the time. I don't hang around with Confederate sympathizers anymore, which is sad, because he's given me a lot of ammunition if I ever see my former friends again.

If there's a reason why he's "not a pedophile" as they claim, let's hear their reasoning. Miscarriages of justice do occur, but there's no outcry that this dude got a raw deal. In the absence of any evidence to the contrary, I'll trust the verdict of the court, indicating that Steve van de Velde is a pedophile.
