    There was a group people who saw through his bullshit back then. I deeply regret dismissing them.

      I remember him being portrayed as this genius who had a good grasp of every technical subject he was interested in by reading books 24/7. I am gonna admit, I did kind of find it plausible at the time.

      It is funny how ridiculous that now sounds after seeing his interviews, social media messages, leaked internal emails and such.
