He basically wins World War 2 and was rewarded with chemical castration for being gay.
@StevieVanZandt I was just in his original office at Bletchley Park a couple of weeks ago. Amazing history there, but disgraceful how he was treated.
@StevieVanZandt A shameful continuation of a bankrupt conservative world outlook that punished and ostracized many of our most capable predecessors that we are all most indebted to @StevieVanZandt. And people like @GovRonDeSantis trying to bring such outlooks back with slimy tricks fit for Nixon
@StevieVanZandt Thanks, good reason to take another look at who was behind this: House of Lords, House of Commons, Church of England. How many others in England weren't targeted?
@StevieVanZandt Although Turins work was critical.It never achieved the impact that "Collosus" did.The worlds first dedicated computer Built By Tommy Flowers Post Office employee.Rarely gets mentioned.He wasn't homosexual,likely why.
@StevieVanZandt @joncoopertweets This story is one all people should know about. Benedict Cumberbatch plays him in the movie, "The Imitation Game." It is a great movie. And very sad for Turing.
@StevieVanZandt When you play at the Manchester Etihad next year you can see the road named after that genius 😉👍🏼
@StevieVanZandt Worse than that, he was made to feel like there’s something wrong with him, which couldn’t be further from the truth.
@StevieVanZandt I honestly did not know about him before seeing the movie “The Imitation Game,” with Benedict Cumberbatch. Excellent movie. Obviously he was erased from history prior to that. Anyway, erased from my history lessons. 😕
