Why is the idea inextricable from the man, for you? Why do we have to worship the whole man, and not just his good ideas? The man was a fucking tool. A complete asshole. Doesn't mean he didn't have good ideas. Why do you require us to burden ourselves with the full man, instead of just recognizing a good idea - wherever it came from - and building on that idea?
