    Not endorsing every aspect of this, but it's worth considering. @ZaidJilani has had some great insights lately.https://quillette.com/2019/02/02/the-ralph-northam-scandal-betrays-the-lefts-hypocrisy-on-forgiveness-and-rehabilitation/ …

        Tracey's view is so subtle and interesting that human language is not yet evolved enough to express it.

        Yeah. I read and enjoyed a few Quillette articles. Then I read one that gave me the itch. Then I started digging. Then I figured out what was going on. They are acting in bad faith.

        "deserve no mercy" 🙄 Nobody's talking about executing Northam. He's just lost the public's confidence to serve as Governor.

        There seems to be some confusion here: saying a politician should resign is significantly more merciful than, say, demanding that she be arrested. “No Mercy” is hyperbole.

        Except his nickname was Coonman. Who knows what the story behind that is, since Northam is lying and saying he doesn’t remember. Also I’m older than Northam and grew up in Richmond. It wasn’t 1884, blackface was NOT ok then

        This is politics. There is no room for this nonsense. We’re at the point where he is a liability to the greater good. One mans journey is irrelevant in public office.

        Weird: fierce judgments on individuals at a time when we're going backwards on structural racism.

        First step is real contrition. He hasn’t shown it. 2nd is homest examination of Northam’s conduct in public life. It hasn’t been examplary courage on race. Notable missteps. Frankly, Saslaw was too quick to defend him. VA voters need to take closer look at Saslaw, facing primary.

        Perhaps white peopke woukd have responded to a Jackson costume In Blackface with laughter, but no Black person would find it funny. And isn’t that the point? Or are we judging now only by how white people feel about racist acts?
