@turtlepower I dunno about sexist, but he's being a dick. Which is in character for early True, whose only real character trait was being a dick.

Before he had evolved into the later True we all love, who was an avenging angel of over-the top righteous (or sometimes extremely petty) violence.

Eh, I guess I'm just disappointed because I at first thought he was a hero of the common man and supporter of people's rights, but he's just an over-violent blowhard.

@turtlepower it varies. Sometimes he's absolutely in the right (opposing cruelty to animals, corruption, people being selfish and mean), sometimes he's hilariously petty and ridiculous (he punches a guy for wearing his hat crooked at one point). But that's late-stage Everett, early Everett just said cruel things and then everybody around him grins or compliments him cause that's "what they were all thinking". Lame.

@turtlepower But yeah, Everett can be extremely disappointing.
