He wasn't cancelled for "being a dick", he was cancelled for being a serial abuser and sex pest.

Don't try to rewrite history just cause you liked the guy before it was revealed

Who accused him of being a "sex pest"? When did that happen? Because I double checked before my comment and triple checked just now.

Last I heard he was making women feel uncomfortable by asking coercive questions, and one of the male actors that worked with him refused to let him be alone in a room with women for fear that he'd be creepy towards them and make them uncomfortable

So you're just accusing me of rewriting history based on your memory?

The thing about not letting him alone with Michelle Trachtenberg was because he was an abusive dick and she was a kid. If there was a sexual component to it, nobody ever mentioned it. As far as I can find, none of the accusations against him are sexual in nature.

Abusive, misogynistic even, sure. But not sexual.

So when you accused me of rewriting history...

Ah yes that's much better, being abusive to a child

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

Yes, being verbally abusive to a child is much, much better than being sexually abusive to a child.
