Whitlock always has been, and always will be, an ignorant douche.
I have never heard of him prior to recent events, however, from your and others' comments, I'd guess his writing style is unchanged from what it has been.
In that event, I must disagree with you. Mr. Whitlock is not a douche.
Douches serve a useful purpose and while not having one, have a strong potential to be somewhere in the vicinity of a vagina at some point in their existence after their creation.
That is all.
Blessings,
