Of course. Tons of them. You didn't know?Unlike Gunn, he's a nobody... so people don't give a shit.
All I knew is that he's some Alt-Right hero for the Cult of Trump. I never followed him or anything he said. Shit though, what a legit scumbag, he's not joking/trying to be crude; those are his viewpoints.

See above: Cernovich seems to be expressing his legit views on life, it doesn't appear to be obviously crude/distasteful humor.
Is this really a guy you want to defend?
Hmmm!?
Err, I don't really see Cernovich saying anything worse than what Gunn said. It sounds like he's trying to be just some shitbag edgelord. The tweet about how to tell if someone is a "true player" is especially cringeworthy in how hard he's trying to be edgy.
I can't see it as worse than trying to be edgy with comments about kids getting blown, ejaculated on, etc.
He's certainly a piece of shit, but the trouble is he doesn't seem to answer to anyone lol. So he doesn't have to worry about getting fired. He's also not involved in creating entertainment meant for all ages, including kids.
No this isn't a defense of him, but he just seems like a 13 yr. old trapped in the body of an adult instead of a rapist.

It's certainly correct those tweets haven't convinced me the guy is an actual rapist.
Just like I won't defend the shit Gunn tweeted, but I don't think the tweets show he is an actual pedo.
At this point all we can do is agree to disagree. Assuming you indeed do disagree and feel the dude just loves rape, loves the concept and just loves doing it, etc.

Equalization tactics, he loves using them to make a shitty person on "his side" seem less shitty. It's very odd, like why not just call a piece of shit, a piece of shit and leave it at that, regardless if their politics/views gel with yours.
eg Kevin Spacey is a piece of shit *full stop*; I don't need to compare him to others to make him seem less shitty because he's a Liberal.
