When Dilbert creator Scott Adams supported Trump in 2016, he estimated he lost about 30 percent of his income and 75 percent of his friends. Could the conversation have been different on a more 'civil' internet?https://wired.trib.al/3OTmK9T

By "civil internet" do you mean like the time he used a mass shooting to promote his company?pic.twitter.com/Je7564lx23

And Elon Musk promoted his batteries after a hurricane. People want to know about tools when they need them. You don’t want less of that.

In 2015 Scott Adams taught me about confirmation bias, cognitive dissonance, and a Clown Genius. It has been fascinating to watch him fall victim to all 3.

Listening to you defend trump is one of the things that drove me out of the Republican party. It also has ruined your comics for me forever, which is a shame because I loved them. Is that civil enough?

Lying trolls are the funniest kind. Yes, I'm sure I made you less Republican.

Have you considered that comments like this might be why you're met with something less than civility? You just called a stranger who read at least a dozen of your Dilbert books as a kid and loved your work a "lying troll."
