Dean Esmay likes to believe himself to be one of the leading lights in the internet's Men's Rights Movement (hereafter "The MRM") and as such, he is an expert on telling people what they should think. His attitude and oftentimes strange ramblings and posts on websites like youtube, facebook, and twitter has lead his life to be filled to the brim with amusing drama.
He has had fights with other members of the MRM, with feminists, with Pick-up Artists and with other types in the manosphere. Dean has been on the internet since at least the 1990s in one form or another, hosting various websites and blogs. His current one (titled "Dean's World") has been running since the year 2002.
He pals around with some other Manosphere-types that may also be worth looking at such as this Fidelbogan aka Luigi Logan, who I've heard of before due to some crazy things. The below tweet isn't wrong per se, I'm just putting this in here as evidence of the connection.
One of Dean's worst habits is declaring everything to be "Rape Hysteria", mirroring the feminists who are all too ready to call something rape.

I think you get my point...
Anyways, his bio on the AVFM Website describes him in the below spoiler, albeit it no doubt has a positive bias because he was an employee there, so that's to be expected. It is useful in showing what he thinks he's an expert in.
Dean Esmay is a husband, a father, and a Men’s Human Rights Activist. A pioneer in the early blogosphere, his blog “Dean’s World” opened in early 2002 as a followup to an opinion site he started in the late 1990s called “Dangerous Thoughts.” Dean’s World was at one time ranked by several sources as one of the best and most influential weblogs in the world, although he put the blog into semi-retirement due to personal reasons some years ago. Contributors to that blog at one time included noted Father’s Rights activist Glenn Sacks and domestic violence advocate Trudy Schuett.
A writer, a journalist, and an all-around geek, Dean has written for IDG Publications, New Riders, Pajamas Media, Resource Central, Syndicomm, Blogcritics, and other publications over the last 25 years. A general geek, his interests also include video games, music, serious Science Fiction, and critical analysis of film, television, and digital media in general. He has been known to dabble on and off for years in the dark art of political punditry, and has worked on more than one political campaign for candidates in more than one political party.
He is a fan of science, particularly information technology and the social sciences such as political science and economics, and maintains an interest in comparative religion as well. He is also the co-author of Methuselah’s Daughter, a work of speculative fiction that was critically-acclaimed, award nominated, and a commercial flop.
In what little spare time Dean has, he enjoys video games, cartoons, and British television and movies even though he’s never even been to the UK. And no, he’s not cutting his hair or shaving his beard off, so you can stop asking. Also, don’t tell anybody, but he’s a Roman Catholic, although he freely admits to not being a very good one.
As a child and a young man, he was subjected to years of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. He refuses to let this define him or use it as a tool to bash others with, but it’s given him an intense passion for helping those who need help, and an intense loathing of those who work hard to marginalize at least half the world’s victims of these horrors, and a complete loathing for people who use their victim status as a club against others and use lurid “trigger warnings” to cheapen vitally important discussions. As a recovering alcoholic, he also has immense sympathy for anyone who’s still struggling in the misery and insanity of addiction.
Having written, debated, and done real-world work to help men and boys struggling from abusive relationships and/or family court abuse, with a particular focus on the area of domestic violence and sexual abuse of children, Dean came to the conclusion in 2012 that 40 years of men’s advocates being nice and polite and conciliatory when it comes to men’s issues had been ineffective, and embraced the AVfM Fuck Their Shit Up philosophy: we’re going to get loud, we’re going to get rude, and we’re not going to debate with idiots and liars who can’t deal with facts or reality: we’re going to get our message heard and start working to protect boys and men from a cold, uncaring, misandrist society, and we’re going to do it by any means necessary, to quote one of his personal heroes, Malcolm X.
He still blogs semi-regularly at Dean’s World (http://www.deanesmay.com) as well as at The Moderate Voice (http://www.themoderatevoice.com), usually about issues other than men’s issues, although he makes sure to get Red Pill content out to a wider audience whenever he gets a chance. He also semi-regularly updates his YouTube channel.
Born in El Paso, Texas in 1966, he has lived in many parts of the United States including Chicago Illinois, Indianapolis Indiana, and Shreveport Louisiana. He currently resides in Michigan. He is a part-time IT consultant and full-time Men’s Human Rights activist.

We Hunted the Mammoth by David Futrelle has tons of posts on his antics and controversies:

This one specifically covers his split from Paul Elam and AVFM:

In some (now sadly deleted/lost) videos he had some rather odd comments to make about other manosphere residents. Including threats of spitting on them and accusations of being "Feminist Sleeper Agents"

Another strange incident was the "SpankAFeminist" Fiasco, which apparently is activism in Dean's world:

Here is an article where Esmay essentially goes A-Log on Roosh V:

And recently he's been battling it out with the "Scientism" and "Atheism" Cults. As well as fighting random Atheists on twitter.

There's even a page about him on a site called "Encyclopedia of American Loons". Which seems to me like a new vein to dig through to find some good lolcows.
I think this OP is long enough, I had to do a surprising amount of digging through a ton of things, and I can guarantee there is a lot more, what with him being an AIDS-Denialist as shown in the EAL page linked about. And thinking that a MGTOW can be married, lol.
Edit: He blocked Shoe0nHead after getting into an argument with her and sperg raging at her. She them dubbed him "lord lolcow"
