Honestly it comes across to me not as him defending rapists, but actually just genuinely not understanding how rape works. The guy somehow understands people less than I do, and that’s saying something.
I wish people would read the published mail thread and not the news articles…he never defended rapists. His quote was quite different. Also, the victim, insofar as her interaction with his old boss, confirmed what happened.

Smart guy. Not a good person. Don’t idolize people

We’re talking about the creator of Emacs. Do you think that guy leaves his house.

sad to see that he thinks like that about rape and the whole Epstein thing :(
