I never said he lived in an ivory tower - he said that of me, and yes, he very clearly and demonstrably is a white man, which is why he adopted that other moniker because he got tired of people saying, "That's what a white man WOULD say."

Everybody has suffered hardship of some sort. That doesn't excuse dismissing other people's pain; refusing to interface with facts, or mischaracterizing what other people say for claps from your fanbase. There were things that I liked about him up until the things that I didn't started becoming more and more prevalent and more and more virulent. When he really and truly stopped engaging in good faith, it was time to block. Sorry that it had to come to that but absolutely relieved to not have to deal with that sort of BS any longer.
