First time I heard about the guy is when I saw a couple of decent comedies on Netflix, I think his had a fairly long career by that time (at least in UK).

Then I saw a few videos on youtube where he clashed with politicians. He seems to have some good (at least for my taste) solid left wing ideas, fighting the good fights. Speaking about wealth redistribution, political corruption, anti-corporations, etc… in a pretty articulate way, the guy seemed to have done his homework.

Apparently he was also into yoga (that I also practice), so… I kind of liked the guy, didn’t follow him much since, but so far so good.

Next thing I heard he had become a qanon believer (trumpist I guess?), anti-vax etc…

Next thing he’s allegedly a sexual predator.

My question: was this guy always seen as dodgy or is this a huge fall from grace?
