As someone who was forced to go hungry for hours because letting grab a snack would ruin my parent's drunk partying, bean dad can jump off a bridge.

Can't wait for his posts in estranged parent forums in 10 years lmao

So apparently I'm following this person and can see the private tweets. FWIW (which isn't much) she's saying she's sorry for saying ugly things in the past.

Is this a goon or former goon? I followed a bunch of goons like two years ago but I don't really use it much or know who I've followed.

Not sure if there were underaged but they worked with Nick Robinson at polygon and some side podcasts before it was revealed that he was a huge sex pest. Between him, their friendship with Lin-Manuel Miranda and now the guy who does their theme song has revealed himself as bean dad (who also uses a shitton of slurs) the McElroys keep finding extremely lovely people entering their orbit.

To their credit; they've never done anything hyper-lovely themselves but it's troubling.


just the guy who does the show's theme song.

Did Lin-Manuel Miranda do something heinous? I know he’s a lovely rich #resistance lib but they’re a dime a dozen sadly.

If bean dad was just a normal dickhead instead of a white supremacist dickhead this whole thing would have been an amusing moment in demonstrating how lovely parenting isn't really that different now than it was in the post war era

I only listen to ru Paul's podcast and aside from all these products you mention the main sponsor is 'squatty potty' which to be fair is a product most people should figure out how to replicate for free using household items instead of buying a loving special toilet foot stool

In case anyone was wondering the context of that racist tweet, this is the beginning of the ramblings:

https://twitter.com/johnroderick/status/332971115335020544

Looks like the woman he was replying to changed her account name, but 5 seconds of google stalking reveals that she's a pretty liberal. I'd like to think that it was a sarcastic conversation, but he seems like an asshat no matter what.

e: he literally deleted the account while I was posting. See screenshots below.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

This is not specifically about Anti Semetic Bean Dad, but can also be related to his case.

It is amazing to me that so much of this twitter/social media etc. drama could be avoided if the main characters just said "Whoops, I said something stupid/wrong/offensive. I understand why you are mad at me, and I'm sorry I did that. I'll try not to do it in the future."

I mean it wouldn't absolve them of their crimes, depending on how egregious the twitter crime was, but it would go a long way. It would also show that you are a mature adult prepared to admit wrongdoing and atone for it.

Instead these self important fuckknobs double down and keep digging a hole for themselves, and end up showing themselves to be worse people than the initial incident implied.

How hard is it for these people to just apologize sincerely? I mean, if you didn't intend the offence, (and lets be very generous and say that you didn't know it would be offensive), at the very least you know you made someone else feel bad. So say sorry like a grown up and don't do it again.

While I agree with what others have said, Twitter also doesn't reward assholes for apologizing. At most, you'll get a bunch of replies telling you that it's too little too late, or that you're not sincere. Or people retweeting you to make fun of the fact that you apologized.

If assholes are going to be criticized no matter what they do, most of them will choose to double down.
