More like the defining moment of his while fucked up life. He isn't exactly summer beach reading.
But yeah, he "got away with it", If you choose to reduce it that way. Not defending him, but dudes been dead 20 years.

I'm a stone cold killer on anonymous boards.

Yeah, the guy's whole rep is "junkie who fucked teenage boys and killed his wife." His whole mystique is based around how fucked up his life was.
My can't these cunts just separate an artists life from their work? Naked Lunch is probably one of my favorite books ever that doesn't mean I think it's chill to drunkenly shoot your wife in the face. Burroughs also seemed pretty upset about it and also credited with that being what really launched him as a writer.
Caravaggio stabbed a dude to death and now no one gives a shit.
WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?
I Ranaissance kek'ed.
do we tell them he fucked young boys or is that too low on the quirk scale for a footnote?

Why would you even read this cesspit of a website?

How young though?
wasn't it an accident?
Didn't he save a woman from the holocaust by marrying her so she could emigrate to the US?
Why doesn't she mention his child prostitute habit? This is a bad article even by SJW standards.
