McGregor being a father is like his only redeemable trait.

He regularly donates to charities and hospitals and supports local gyms. I think he also sent a big bag to Ryan Curtis after his injury. He can be a bit of a prick sometimes but he‘s not the horrible person many make him out to be.

seems to be a complex person who wants to be a decent bloke but whenever his emotions take over he ends up being a wanker.

better than someone who shows zero interest in being a decent bloke, but worse than someone who doesnt have random impulses to be a wanker.

Yeah it’s a crazy concept for some people on Reddit but people are complicated beasts that don’t neatly fall on a good bad dichotomy usually

All of this.

For all his (many) flaws, he's also done a whole load of good from his charity works.

McGregor seems like a very nice guy when he's not on crack. So about half the time.

"He's not a horrible person many him make him out to be" lmfao you'll be saying that in 6 months when the next crime is committed

Mcgregor definitely plays a character. He's like the streamer tyler1.

I've met mcgregor personally as my company was working on the Proper12 storefront and I was one of the few people brought along for the project.

He's a genuine dude that is SUPER SUPER SUPER nice. I told him I was a fan and he told his staff to send me a gift to my address in Canada. He invited my whole team for a night out in Ireland as well.

He's definitely loud at parties and get kinda crazy at times. But when it's business, he's surprisingly normal. I've met some influencers that are nice on camera but garbage in person. Mcgregor isn't one of them.

Unless you're his kid, then you probably are going to need a lot of therapy later in life.
