      "Atlanta bombings." It's good to see the sleuth who blew open the truth of Trig Palin's birth still has a steel-trap mind for facts.https://twitter.com/sullydish/status/1373337369718493186 …

      If and when the NYT’s and WaPo’s hate-crime narrative about the Atlanta bombings collapses as a trial is held, do you think they will acknowledge it? Me neither.

      Jeet Heer Retweeted Andrew Sullivan

      Atlanta shootings (not "bombings" please) are by the killer's own admission a hate crime. Killing women because you see them as temptresses destroying your purity is a misogynist hate crime. Unless you don't see misogyny as a form of hatred.https://twitter.com/sullydish/status/1373337369718493186 …

          Had to look up the FBI’s own definition of hate crime. Yep. Gender counts.

          Bingo. I thought we all were understating that when a person says they didn't do something that can be called racist it is because they did something that is really hardcore racist & they shouldn't expect us to believe their excuse. But hate is hate. Violent hate is the worst.

          He killed eight people, Jeet. Those are capital crimes. Are The People going to stick two needles in his arm because the victims were female?

          Sullivan exhaustively detailed a campaign by the media to frame the shootings as motivated by racial hate, despite a total lack of evidence. Any charitable reading should indicate that’s what he is referring to

          I think you're missing @sullydish 's main point, which is that the anti-Asian hate-crime narrative is what might collapse in court. The killer was arrested on his way to FL to kill people in the porn industry (presumably not all Asian).

          Andy's always needed a good copy editor, even when he was editor-in-chief And he's an all-but-self-acknowledged misogynist. So on this, color me shocked.
