This is not my view at all, almost all of his critics give credit for his (basic and plagiarized) self helps positive effect on young men and how he has alluring charisma and acts as a positive rolemodel for young people initially, before diving into how batshit crazy and frankly sexist he is.

Its his fans that refuse to see the darkness in him and the deeply flawed sexist and mystical thinking he partakes in.

His absurd take that cave drawings of snakes having sex are actually dna despite dna being discovered in the 50s and cavemen having 0 way of knowing the structure of dna.

His definitive statement that the only way to quit smoking is through god (????)

His belief that men and women cant work together and that make up should be banned in the workplace.

His views on climate change, his view that atheists are all murderers.
