Comment on who's gonna tell him?
yermaw@sh.itjust.works 9 hours agoComing at it with next to no knowledge, but i was under the impression that McAfee was more of a self-parody. Like he was just fucking around but never actually had delusions of grandeur or anything.

Behind the Bastards did a show on him. My memory is fuzzy on the specifics, and holy shit was it complicated trying to find out the information without listening to the episode(s) again, but no, he wasn’t just a silly self-parody and stepped over the line to be a piece of shit.
Allegations against him:
So yeah, it wasn’t all just silly running for president while living on a boat he frequently searched for stowaway spies due to deep paranoia (combined with knowing that he’d done things to make it realistic that authorities might really be trying to get him) and making shirtless videos while heavily armed. But I did think the same as you before hearing that episode.
