We should really ditch the entire meme, there's a hundred other ways to say the same thing without keeping Crowder's "Change my mind" alive.

Besides, Calvin's lemonade stand is really a different sort of a message anyhow.

Obligatory fuck that guy

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 38 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Isn't that that guy that said the only reason he was getting divorced is because his wife who he verbally abused was legally allowed to leave him?

You know, the guy who voiced Brain in Arthur

[–] Alto@kbin.social 20 points 1 year ago

Well that wasn't a piece of trivia I was expecting to learn today

[–] Heavybell@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow so he's not only a climate denier but a misogynist piece of shit too?

[–] OrnateLuna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

He is many more things aswell

[–] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Brain? That's ruined my day.

[–] HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No that was Max Friedman-Cole

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the guy who exposed himself to coworkers and throws around slurs like confetti. That guy.

[–] rez_doggie@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Crowder can suck it

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 48 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I believe this meme is what's given him the most publicity, so, yeah we should def use a different template

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Literally didn't exist before the meme.

I bet no one has changed his mind about being an abusive piece of shit to the heavily pregnant women in his life. Pretty sure that's baked right in.

[–] Haus@startrek.website 30 points 1 year ago

I know that Crowder is a right-wing shit-stirrer, and I've seen the meme a million times. Never had any idea that it was him in the picture.

[–] wetnoodle@sopuli.xyz 24 points 1 year ago

fuckin finally

[–] toastus@feddit.de 22 points 1 year ago

I don't give a fuck what he wants.

I just don't want to see his face anymore.

[–] snownyte@kbin.social 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did he die recently or something? That was what my immediate thought was. Because I'm sure the only way to have changed his mind at all is if he were dead.

[–] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 8 points 1 year ago

Yep, he's gone. How will we ever live without him. Oh well, moving on!

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

I'm fine with the calvin one

[–] ComradePorkRoll@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

He's actually gone to go scream at his wife.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Wasn’t that Crowder? He definitely hasn’t changed his mind. He’s still an obnoxious shit-show host, last I checked.

[–] Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

But look, he's gone

[–] ReCursing@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

what happened? I mean from what i know of the guy I hope it was at least mildly unpleasant, but did something actually happen to him?

[–] Nobsi@feddit.de 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. Hes just still a wife beater and a general "everything hurts my feelings"-loser

[–] OrnateLuna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is he still living with his wife?

[–] Thetimefarm@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No he walked out on her and the kids, retained a divorce attorney then got enraged when she initiated the divorce... after finding out he was planning on divorcing her. Then someone leaked that video of him yelling at her while she's 8 months pregnant to put medicine on their dog. At least he burned the 50 million daily wire offered him, I wonder how that's going for him.

[–] iloverocks@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

I didn't knew anything about him this is truely sad to hear

[–] Wage_slave@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Alright, this shit's genius.

Bravo and an enthusiastic tip of the hat!

And all I had to do was scream at him that he's a bad person. I'll have to remember that for next time.

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Did he die on the way back to his home planet?

[–] Granixo@feddit.cl -5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

*resisting urge to make Silent Hill 2 reference

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

There was an asshole here. He's gone now.
