Brendan Eich was against Gay Marriage at the same time that Barrack Obama himself was against Gay Marriage. A detail often forgotten in the rehashing of old grievances.

IMO, calling Brendan evil or bad is the kind of moral shortcut that Progressives love taking. A microcosm of the election, really: all the capable moderates were effectively canceled or marginalized by self-righteous radicals, who deemed that the only "good" candidate was someone who couldn't even win a primary.

It's bad politics and lazy morality.
