@danieldennett A tad too antisemitic to be one of mine.

@danieldennett did anyone recognise you there?

@danieldennett I thought he was racist, not just antisemitic.

@danieldennett I don't mean to be impolite, sir, but he was quite well known to be anti-Semitic and quite sexist.

@danieldennett I, too, admire his utter brilliance, but can we elevate him, as a man, too much, considering what we know?

@danieldennett Disney, like many others who contributed so much, raises an interesting conflict for me..

@danieldennett Do we acknowledge and admire the contributions while ignoring disagreeable personal qualities?

@danieldennett Perhaps the correct answer is the most difficult one to accept.

@danieldennett A man can be many things, simultaneously. To disregard the, "good" in these cases seems tempting.
