RE: Anarchy, Celebrities, Drama, Scandals, & Seriously Why The Fuck Do I Have To Bring This Up?

As I made clear, I have my own 'ideological' grievances with Kokesh. Personally, I've felt he was a shill and in the case between him and his ex, his actions were beyond something like an affair. If rumors are true, he essentially attempted to contract a sort of compulsory sexual gratification service with someone that should be assumed to be emotionally vulnerable to him because of the nature of their relationship.
But even that aside, Kokesh has always rubbed me wrong. His antics have been amusing and even productive, but I've never felt he really believes in individual freedom so much as he uses it to get his face out there.

Anybody that gains traction among the people is suspect for the same reason that Marx is well known and Bakunin is not.
Being aware of that one should jealously guard one's reputation.
Folks got foibles.
