re: #297 Targetpractice

The wingnuts will attack us even if we police ourselves, and the media has shown it will hit us for doing the “right” thing as easily as it will the “wrong” thing, so who is it we’re impressing with these rushes to apologies and falling on swords? If you say “the voters,” I got a damn bridge I’m selling off for cheap.

I like the counter-argument based on pure practicality. Samantha Bee’s use of c*** as part of a justified attack on Ivanka Trump was a mistake because it unified the right and split the left. That’s just bad politics.
