I can’t even call that an AMA. It appeared that he had pre-prepared answers for certain questions, and nothing else.

Less of an AMA, more of a AMOTQABMPT. Ask Me Only The Questions Approved By My PR Team (but I still managed to fuck up.)

At one point he posted a response that started with “A:” before editing it to drop the A:
which made it clear he was posting canned answers at the very least
