Paul Wheaton is a grifter, petty tyrant, and mini Hubbard who has built a cult around himself.

He bans anyone from the permaculture subreddit who disagrees with him, which is why there are multiple off-shoot subreddits, including one specifically dedicated to his malfeasance which broaches into criminality.

This guy has control of the permaculture subreddit? That's awful. Permaculture is a great and important movement.

Does anybody know why movements rooted in holism keep getting taken over by people like this? It seems like every movement that starts out by wanting to incorporate high-level perspectives ends up getting burdened with the crystal-spinners and magic-cancer-curers of the world.

Every system is corrupted by those willing to leverage the most from it.

Found this interesting and surprisingly balanced point of view on the man from people who clearly denounce him and his behvior: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP9GM-1YJCI
