Opinion of jaichind

[Hindsight was 2020]

Said he’d be into human trafficking if it wasn’t for the legal ramifications and also said he supports the Axis over the Allies, says it all

His moral repugnancy drowns out a lot of the value he may otherwise contribute. Firm HP vote unless and until he disavows nihilism, quits stanning for dictators, and expresses a serious change of heart about... investing in child brothels. But then he wouldn't be jaichind.

This. I still maintain that his Holocaust revisionism called for way more than a short-term mute. Obviously so did the child prostitution remark, but the forum was a very different place back then.

Tbf Red Velvet’s recent awful Holocaust remarks didn’t get him in any trouble beyond the comment being deleted

He never said this.

You are technically correct in that he said that he is "fairly empathetic to the Axis point of view" but that distinction is so technical that its odd you highlight it.

My reading of that post was that he viewed himself as being understanding to the Axis POV while ultimately siding against them. The overall post never said anything suggesting (when read together with everything else) "in general the Axis was right". It was also prefaced with "while" which already functions as a built-in caveat in this context.
To make up lies about jaichind's politics to make them look worse is so patently unnecessary. And said lies don't suddenly become true no matter how many people agree with said lies or express agreement with them.

There is absolutely nothing about his history that suggests the comment in question should be given this beyond generous interpretation

I mean, I saw that post, I probably even replied to it. I know what's in it.
You just want to assume the worst about it by reading something into it that isn't actually there.
Which is your right, but I'm calling it out for what it is.

How is saying he’s pro-Axis an unfair reading of him saying he’s “ fairly empathetic to the Axis point of view”

I saw the post in question and he indeed wasn't saying he favored the Axis. He was saying he thought Both Sides Had a Point. That's not much better.

Okay fine I retract but at the same time as you said this isn’t much better
