"It wasn't his place to comment"
Fucking seriously? Here is an author who has a youtube channel that covers a wide range of relevant topics, and a man who has reached so many teenagers and other people with his books (not that I liked them, but he is influential over alot of people because of them). He literally made that list because he is so influential, and then saying he has no right to comment on who else should've made that list?
That he, John Green, the white cis male, how dare he use his position as a popular and influential person to teens and young adults to say that Laverne Cox should've made the list, that she "is one of the most important and influential people in the world", that he dare use his position to say something about this pole, how dare he answer a question about a list he was included on, how dare he, a white cis male, have an opinion on something that he has every right to?
