Kelsey Grammer.

I still can't believe he's riding the Trump train, and is returning as Beast for the new Marvel films at the same time. The cognitive dissonance is confounding me.

Adding Louis CK to the list. I used to like his shows, and genuinely found the writing and his takes to be thoughtful and helpful. Finding out he was gross and shitty the whole time sucked.

I never understood this take. Like, did you not actually listen to the shit he said when you "liked" his shows? Did you not see the skit where he went on a morning interview and told his female interviewer that he was going to jerk off to her later and there was nothing she could do about it? If so, how was it actually surprising to hear he jerked off infront of a female coworker after he told her he was going to do it? You can separate the art from the artist all you want, but at some point you have to realize that all that art came from somewhere.

I believe that skit was about christofascist suppression of masturbation so it was appropriate at the time. The interviewer was surnamed "Fapper".

A lot of his humor was based on things you want to do but don't. So exploring dark desires that you should not act on is reasonable for comedy. Then it comes out that he did some of that stuff and it's not funny anymore.

Sarah Silverman, said the palestinian babies need to die because theyll grow up to be terrorists then turned off comments for a year on ig, she said more than that had a whole tirade, ruined her. Shes back now pretending she didnt say anything, pr team put in work. My post on her reddit got deleted so I stopped caring about telling ppl, but this made me remember.

Warren Ellis, though his forum looked super cult-like even at the time. He seemed like one of the good guys.

Tobey Maguire, "the worst tipper, the best player, and the absolute worst loser."

Carlos Sobera, a really great TV host in Spain, with the boom of sport betting websites and almost no regulations on the ads, he became the face of one of those websites with very aggressive tactics.

He also started to appear on ads for a payday loan company.

So he was promoting gambling and high interest small loans that are used by gambling adicts.
