I admire his tenacity and how he willingly ruined his future career prospects in order to give people the ability to talk freely about a wide variety of subjects, whether he agrees with their opinions or not. That takes a lot of balls and courage. He's one of the few people I can point to and say that they genuinely grok the principles of free speech, even though this isn't a true free speech platform - which makes perfect sense, because 100% free speech is a disaster for everyone.
He's made a surprisingly welcoming and largely forgiving space where anyone can have an opinion - even retarded ones. In exchange he gets persecution and hate. It's not fair, but that's the way it goes.
I doubt we'd be friends IRL, but that doesn't matter here. I admire him for taking a stand for what he thinks is right in a world that increasingly has no one taking stands. Right or wrong, (I think right) this is his legacy, and it's an impressive one. I stan.
