      I think @mtracey is right on a lot of issues-primarily #RussiaGate. With that said, this is an awful take and wreaks of out-of-touch privilege. You don't minimize homophobia & bigotry and tell someone being harassed to "get over it." It doesn't matterhttps://twitter.com/thetomzone/status/1136430766144065543 …

      here's @mtracey's thoughts on homophobic harassment: complaining about it is "pathetic" and @gaywonk should "get over it" because poor steven crowder's "livelihood" is based on his channel https://youtu.be/Lq4AANAcZZc  pic.twitter.com/MHRT6KkkNC

      You may want to watch the entire video rather than circulate a truncated clip tweeted by a notorious liar and troll.

      I did watch the whole thing. You minimized a gay journalist being harassed over his sexual orientation by Crowder as part of a "screaming hoard of moralizing media people who want their own preferences and whims to be reflected in the policy of the company." Someone calling for

      OK. Still, bad move to circulate a clip from this disgusting, disgraced liar. Maza is a professional adult journalist working for a major media company who claims he needs "protection" from YouTube because some juvenile asshole (Crowder) mocked him. Yeah, I find that pathetic.

          I don't really see what who tweeted the clip has to do with WHAT YOU SAID IN YOUR VIDEO. You're deflecting now. And again, you continuing to minimize him as just being thin-skinned at being "mocked" shows you clearly don't get the difference bw juvenile mockery and open bigotry

          I wrote an entire column on the subject here, feel free to read. I'm against the infantilization of journalism, where adults cry to "teachers" to impose disciplinary action on their adversaries, and pressure platforms to more stringently regulate speechhttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1136705807553310722 …

          Steven Crowder is an unfunny blowhard, but Carlos Maza is professional adult journalist employed by a major media organization -- not some kid being bullied on a playground. The idea that YouTube needs to "protect" him is ridiculous and infantile https://spectator.us/steven-crowder-carlos-maza-playground/ …

          If you don't want to be ridiculed online, maybe you shouldn't choose a profession that entails making provocative, incendiary political statements online. Ridicule comes with the territory. I reject that mockery constitutes actionable "harassment" in the manner Maza claims.

          Michael, I’m almost with you on this. But gay people are attacked by the power structure in a way that oppresses them uniquely, and it’s important to acknowledge this is happening. But that certainly does not mean public figures, gay or otherwise, are immune from criticism

          If someone uses a racial slur against a black person, is that "mocking him." Using descriminatory language is not "mocking" someone.
