Newsweek has retracted a story about a meme related to the assault of Richard Spencer, published on Jan. 24.

The story did not meet the ethics and standards of Newsweek. We regret its publication.

wtf is a "leading ethicist?"
-
a leading figure in the academic discipline of ethics, presumably. compare "leading biologist" etc.

wow, you write for motherjones and couldn't figure that shit out. unreal. maybe go back to college?
-
There is no such thing as a "leading ethicist." Ethics are hotly debated and subjective.
-
step away from the computer shane you are making no dude. also "subjective"? now THAT's hotly debated

bc it's NOT OK to punch people if they hold an opinion with which you disagree. If you disagree, can I punch you?
-
No. They don't. That is pure and utter bullshit, and you know it (or you are delusional).
