My Take
Piers Corbyn is impossible to file under a single heading, and that is exactly why I find him fascinating. A physicist and meteorologist who built a business on his own contrarian long-range forecasts, he is also a magnet for controversy as an anti-vaccine and conspiracy figure. I won't defend the fringe claims, but I'm genuinely drawn to the sheer stubbornness of a man who would rather be wrong on his own terms than right by anyone else's. His brother led a major political party, which adds a strange family symmetry. Love him or loathe him, he refuses to blend in, and I find that streak quietly compelling.
