Billy is hardly even that "slimy." Oh what, he's smug? He forcefully sells a product? He filed and lost a couple lame lawsuits? So what?
He wasn't chatting about child sex dungeons, cheating in gaming competitions to screw others out of prizes, naming his son "Giant Penis," scamming incels with bogus dating advice, willfully misrepresenting his lawsuits to crowdfund legal fees, covering up his friend's role in driving a man to suicide, bragging about his drug and porn consumption, attacking Kiwi Farms because it laughed at him once, or buddying up to Vito Gesualdi, like Karl Yobst.
I get that Billy Mitchell has his share of unappealing characteristics, but I can't stand this wishy-washy attitude that he has to be called a slimy grifter out of the other side of our mouths in order to not look like we're picking sides. Dude's cringe, but he's not scamming a soul.
