-I can’t tell you how long he’s been a regular listener of Alex Jones.
-He seems to really have something against Disney. He seems to think Walt Disney was a Freemason (although I can’t find any hard evidence saying he was, though I never really looked that hard). Thus he’s convinced Club 33 was named for the 33 degrees of Freemasonry, Disney movies are primarily made to brainwash kids, and most, if not all of their child actors have been molested.
-He’s a firm believer in Pizzagate.
-The other day he casually and seriously called Jay Z a Satanist.
-It took him until late last year to finally decide climate change might actually be a thing and not just an excuse to start charging carbon taxes or whatever.

“Declining attendance combined with high operating costs, along with changing public tastes and prolonged battles with animal rights groups all contributed to its demise.”
It seems like animal rights groups were only one factor.
In the end of the article they talk more about the impact of removing the animals but, anyway, you do not think it is ethically objectionable to force animals to perform?

I wouldn’t say it’s PETA’s fault.
I mean, who honestly wants to go to a circus anymore? They’re cool and all, but… nobody wants to go today. As someone on Reddit mentioned, all the stuff they offer we can easily find in a hundred different ways, and most of them are easier.
It’s a real shame, but it doesn’t feel like a big blow.

The article says this. Today, with internet/television/movies/etc the circus became a niche, and isn’t lucrative as in the past. The times change.

Having no idea what their training is like, I can’t say it’s any more objectionable than owning a pet and teaching it tricks.

Reminds me of when my godfather Charles’s cancer finally got to him in 2012; when I had seen him before, he was undergoing chemo treatments and was looking okay, but when I saw him in 2012, he was in the hospital and could barely move. He died early that year.

The only response I got was someone posting this GIF:
Due to how vague this was as a response, I asked:
But then he responded with:
I would find that more reassuring if I knew what it was that I allegedly made up. To quote the 6th Amendment: “The accused has the right to know what they are being charged with.”

Okay, so I’ve finally attempted to make amends with the Channel Awesome forum.
I’d like to apologize sincerely about freaking out over the past few days. I got way too passionate about the debate at hand and my strong emotions have probably alienated a lot of you. I’m really sorry about that and just hope you guys can forgive me for what was a drastic overreaction and we can move on.

Sooooooo… Should I take that as a “no, I will remain unforgiven and I might as well never post here again because I will not be taken seriously”? Or something else? :(
But then he responded with:
I guess just interpret how you want. But I wouldn’t continue to make up stuff.

Then I don’t get why you brought forgiveness to the matter. As far as being taken seriously, us not being lenient on rock and roll as appropriation is taking you very seriously, not pandering to your sensibilities (not to sound rash). Implying that you somehow alienated the three of us with your self-proclaimed behavior can be seen as egotistic. That follows from your suggestion that we inferred that you are racist, and that we were hung up on debating about appropriation among ourselves because of you bringing it up.

You basically just threw the match there, and gave them a likely undeserved sense of superiority. He’s basically saying you’re right to feel bad.
Last thing you should ever do for these people is apologize.
