The Money He Earned From the Industry

Does anyone know whether he gave back the $1.1 million he earned from the industry? It’s a valid piece of information to include in the article.Les Whinin (talk) 20:04, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I can't imagine he would "give back" money he earned. I don't know how it would be a "valid piece of information" if he didn't. He probably spent it on life expenses, moving back to Carolina, buying a house, wedding, etc. EytanMelech (talk) 00:48, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It’s valid because he’s essentially saying that he was wrong to work in the pornographic industry, given that he believes now that the pornography industry is bad. Therefore, if he consciously chooses to withhold the money he made working in an industry he himself considers vile, then he’s a hypocrite.Les Whinin (talk) 02:17, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it, but I think that would fall under W:ORIGINAL since that is information you are synthesizing yourself. EytanMelech (talk) 02:19, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think we can agree, even if we agree on little else, that I wouldn’t be the sole person drawing such a conclusion about this individual. However, given that such a point does fall within the realm of W:ORIGINAL, I will relent on it here. Nevertheless, the issue was worth raising even it was going to be dismissed justifiably.Les Whinin (talk) 02:48, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
