what happened with pogo

[Divine]

Apparently he did an interview a couple years ago

Doesn't come off as insane

^ Unfortunately a lot can happen in a couple years. Insanity can creep up on you with everyone noticing but you.

This sounds perfectly sane and reasonable:

SHAUNA O'DONNELL: DID YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT WHY YOU LEFT?
Pogo: You see, with the court thing, I'm not sure what we can talk about because there is still a debate whether I left or I was fired because technically I was a partner. He tried to say I was an employee and he tried to fire me. You can't do that with a partner, so that's what these three years of lawsuits that have been going on about.

SHAUNA O'DONNELL: WELL THERE ARE STORIES OUT THERE AND I THINK PEOPLE HAVE FORMED THEIR OWN OPINIONS.
Pogo: They have the right to do that. I'm not going to change because of this and I'm not going to disparage Manson. I wish him the best, but I think he got too far away from the music to be honest. He wanted to do more acting, painting and all that other stuff. I think he kind of forgot, like Lunchbox, I want to be a rock star. You can't serve two masters. Every musician wants to be an actor anyways and every actor wants to be a musician. It's the classic Hollywood double-take. Yeah, it's just one of those things. I can't get inside his brain, but I think he got a little too surrounded by yes-men and people who were trying to present him in a Hollywood way and trying to get him away from the music. In a weird way, because we came from Florida, we were outside this whole entertainment scene where everybody just like sucks your ass.

I talk to him now and then on facebook, he's very spirited (can be pretty confrontational, doesn't hold back) and maybe a bit eccentric - but from what I can tell, he's not mad.

He is always bringing up nazi/jewish issues. The more he tries to paint MM as a nazi, or stir the pot on jewish hatred or anything of the like - the more he is keeping those kind of bigoted ideals alive. He spent a great deal trying to convince people that MM is a nazi and all these things which I think does a lot more harm in projecting racism and bigotry than whatever Pogo is trying to accuse MM of.

Remember that whole "Seraphim Ward is engaged to Manson" fiasco? (And it turned it to be Pogo who was living with her?) In a very recent interview she was asked about that and she (who is probably as crazy as Pogo) said that he (Pogo) "flipped out when he found out she had spoken to Manson because Manson is a Nazi..."
