Its not like there's anything even super incriminating in here aside from him being maybe not like a super awesome person? So fucking what

I hear your point, but that AMA was a bad idea on his part. He's a private citizen and he is trying to cash in on his popularity, who wouldn't. But the presidential debate forum didn't force him to use his own handle, no one did.

Indeed. Plus, anyone who tells you they weren't bitten by the curiosity bug during the fappening is either chemically castrated or full of horseshit. His failing was leaving a comment. Also pregnant women are beautiful.

We're all saints, amirite? I love when we can expose these freaks who have thoughts outside of our strict Christian values.

I really don't see the big deal in anything he posted. He looked up pictures of J-Law? So did just about every other man in America. Even admitted it was wrong to do it. He lied to get a job? Who doesn't? Don't really see the big deal in what he said about Zimmerman, either. He thinks he's a horrible human being but thinks it was self-defense. What's the problem? You may disagree with the self-defense thing, but not everything's so cut and cry to everybody.

I just think it kind of makes him seem more stupid than anything. I'm generally in agreement with you on this, but It takes under 30 seconds to make a Reddit account, which is what he absolutely should've known to do for an AMA instead of using the account he uses to post porn comments with.

He's donating a bunch of money to a homeless shelter. What a monster. Let's dig through his post history and find stuff that's kind of maybe sort of weird

It's kinda funny how the second someone becomes famous, people set out to find dirt to destroy that person. It usually takes longer than a couple days though.

LOL.. This shit wasn't in his email. He posted it on a public forum. He exposed his views. We are allowed to critique them.


*waits for someone to dig through Alim's post history here.

I hope they get Jennifer Lawrence's reaction to all of this. I'd be honored to have Bone's butthole seal of approval.

Maybe she'll stand by him.

He still exudes more or less the same character that he had during and after the debate. The comments only kinda reinforces that.

He destroyed himself by not separating his real identity with an anonymous online identity.

And further wrecked himself by using the same credentials for porn sites and everything else on the internet.

This isn't a hacking/DOX job - this is all from just basic Google Searches.

Hell, SIRI on iOS or OK Google could tell you his whole web history at this point.

No one is saying that. And there's nothing wrong in being attracted to any part of the body.

Uhhh if you're gonna make shitty comments on a public forum then you should be prepared to be called out on them. Nothing is being "exposed."

Just leave the guy alone. Who cares about his post history, he's not running for office or trying to act like he's morally superior to anyone else. Not everyone that gets 5 minutes of fame deserves a witch hunt.

I had this really long comment about using the internet and anonymity but I know it's just gonna ruffle someone's feathers.

Just leave the man alone. He's only human.

Seriously. The outrage over "private citizen got doxxxorzed!!" is ridiculous. This dude unfortunately fucked up big time, hoping nothing happens to his job or future prospects.

The fact that he was undecided at this point in THIS election was a massive red flag.

We all knew this would happen.

That being said I don't think he intended to put himself that far out there. He has gotten much more attention than one would assume from just asking a single question in a debate.
Maybe he doesn't deserve to be internet detectived to death.

Then again, he did take part in that AMA.

I have to say... I expected a lot more egregious comments than that. Those comments are actually pretty meh overall, considering this is the fucking internet we're talking about.

I disagree with his assessment of the Trayvon Martin case wholeheartedly, but at least he realizes what a scumbag Zimmerman is. I really don't care that he saw The Fapppening nudes of J-law and liked it - Whatever the fuck ever on that. Although, I must say, his victim blaming line about it is a bit disheartening.

The insurance fraud thing is legit not a good look.. why the hell would you admit something like that on the net? why

Overall, I'm gonna give these "egregious" comments a meh out of 10.

No one is attacking his political views. I don't think anyone is attacking him, really. The article claims he's seedy and so does the OP's title, but nothing here suggests he's anything more than a human with some weird fetishes and odd opinions on things. And that he may have committed insurance fraud.

At most, some places will cancelled the interviews with him and his deal with Uber won't last as long as it would have. He'll survive.

Also, after being stalked and knowing people who've been stalked, it's funny that you'd think looking at a person's post history out of curiosity is anything near "stalking".

He actually had an extremely reasonable answer to this, but go ahead and continue the circle jerk please.

This guy flew too close to the sun. Or more accurately, was slingshot into the sun by the good old internet that is always hungry for a new meme to rally around because he looked like a dork. Not surprised a random person thrust into the spotlight has skeltons.

At least Harambe will always be pure.

This Ken Bone Internet fad saga says more about the legion of interneters who made him trend more than he deserved

I hated his post debate interviews by the way

So he likes porn and has a fairly mild opinion on a controversial issue.

Honestly I've seen worse. There isn't even an unironic white supremacist post here and that's entry-level Reddit cancer.
