At least Adam Savage is a good dude. He is actively running his YouTube channel, and often answers various questions including personal ones.

And I at least know that he has actively tweeted in support of LGBTQ+ rights. I highly doubt he would sell out for big oil.

Adam savage was openly supportive of trans people in like the aughts. He’s just been consistently a great guy

I live in San Francisco and ran into him at brunch a few weeks ago - he was super friendly when I came up to talk to him and super patient and sweet. I was super nervous that meeting him would ruin my image of him but it is still intact :)

It probably helps that he's probably a millionaire and has some tremendous life achievements under his belt.
