Yall can find his facebook posts yourselves, but a lot of it is based on hating women in the guise of religion.

See, this is why I brought up the point of asking whether we're going to advocate for banning people for saying "I think this person's a good guy despite what people are saying about him". I haven't read the FB posts in question, but this immediately makes me skeptical.

I looked over his Twitter feed and if the worst thing you can say about a person is that they believe things and affirm that they believe things I can find in the Catholic Catechism sitting on my coffee table, then ban me now.

I mean, looking at it on the PF and SF wikis, he hasn't worked at Paizo (or done any freelance work for them) since 2017.

There's a difference between saying, "I have a religious belief that I abide by" and "Everyone needs to abide by my religious belief and I need to control what happens with womens bodies"

The posts being shared say that sex should never be enjoyable, period. That abortions should never occur. Ever. And I'm not the only one providing push back to it. A lot of others are speaking up about it so I am not the only one offended.
