This is from a little over a year ago, but it shows how easy it is to conflate a person with the ideas he professes to live by. It also shows how dangerous showing only one side of the story is.

Finally, the comments section is incredibly amusing, as it has a bunch of couch-psychologists (ha, pun intended) crying "he's a psychopath" and would-be philosophers expressing sympathy over this young woman's "plight."
