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 …

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 …

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.
