I’ve also heard that he gets approached a lot by weirdos asking odd questions. Specifically, at one talk, during the Q and A portion, getting asked highly technical questions by adults who grew up watching him and expecting him to be able to respond. I wouldn’t put too much weight on what randos on the Internet have to say about his character.

Someone I know met him and their take was “he’s even more autistic than I am.” I could see people confusing autism for being a jerk.

He did shill for Coca-Cola, which isn’t a great look.

He also had some bad takes in his more recent show, but people are too ready to believe random people on the internet on matters of character when they’ve, at max, only talked to him for 5 minutes. He’s has a net positive impact and people would better to find other targets for their energy.

I’d be pretty pissed off all the time if I spent years trying to educate children just to watch more than half of them grow up to be complete morons.

Particularly if you’d been talking about climate change for several decades and getting mocked and ignored by morons.
