The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.
Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.
The site’s popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes’ annual list of billionaires just three years later.
He “passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer,” OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.
Magic Johnson didn’t just throw money at his HIV to stop it from becoming AIDS. He has spent decades at throwing hundreds of millions at EVERYONE’S HIV to stop it from becoming AIDS by spending untold millions on HIV and AIDS research and advocacy, and convincing thousands and thousands of others over the last 35 years to do the same. Not to mention being one of HIV/AIDS research biggest public advocates worldwide. Lobbying dozens of governments to spend money on research, and lobbying government to treat those with HIV and AIDS with some shred of humanity, rather than pestilent cretins to be quarantined and killed, especially in Africa, where it was spreading like wildfire in the 90s.
And shame on you for ignoring that
Shame on you
SHAME!
And shame on you for using him as a cudgel for your ignorant, bigoted argument.

Apologies if you somehow missed the larger context of my post. I’m not trying to specifically bash Magic Johnson for his efforts expanding awareness of and research into HIV/AIDS, I’m trying to make a point that money literally buys time in this world.
The comment I replied to is a line from a song simply stating “and all your money won’t another minute buy” and I pointed out an example of someone buying years of time with money.
Regardless of the larger point you were trying to make, you didn’t have to run over magic Johnson and the multiple decades of worldwide HIV/AIDS advocacy, hundreds of millions of dollars, tens of thousands of hours of lectures and good works that he did with a freight train of bigoted ignorance.
So go fuck yourself with that freight train of bigotry, ignorance, entitlement and arrogance you rode in here with
Because unless you’re gonna delete your comment, I don’t wanna hear it
First of all, if I did delete my comment, how would other people have content to your outrage?
Second, Help me understand how giving an example of money buying health is bigotry, ignorance, entitlement, or arrogance.
At no point did I disparage Magic Johnson or say anything derogatory towards people with HIV/AIDS. Maybe I picked a bad example, sure. I’m highly confident that every single millionaire and billionaire has spent more on health care than the average person.
Honestly you are making some of my point for me. Yes, tremendous effort went into normalizing a deadly disease that was previously demonized as only afflicting “the gays” and “junkies” … By spending massive amounts of money, work that could not have happened without financial backing “everyone” up to that point didn’t see a reason to expend.
Purely a philosophic question, Still no offense to Mr. Johnson, but would he have spent any of that time effort and money if he didn’t personally have HIV?
As I said in my private comment to you, I am happy to educate you on the history of the contributions that Magic Johnson made. I’m happy to educate you on the history of HIV and aids because of his contributions. I have absolutely no interest in engaging in your arguments.
If you’re interested in being educated, let me know.
And so this can be seen publicly: thank you for deleting your comment
