"Calling out hypocrisy is a worthwhile exercise; supporting the lynch mob against Jeong is not."
As usual, @robbysoave w/ the only sane take I've seen on this.https://reason.com/blog/2018/08/02/sarah-jeong-new-york-times-racist-tweet …
I think it's perfectly reasonable for people to object online to the nation's most powerful newspaper hiring someone who's repeatedly said 'kill all men' and 'fuck the police'. It's not a 'lynch mob', it's consumers & citizens voicing concerns.

The problem is that the Left wants to purge Kevin Williamson and co. but let their side get off scott-free for arguably worse offenses. That's what we should attack, the hypocrisy.

Milo was actually a very accomplished and talented tech writer too.

I want to see a public discourse where people of all political persuasions can recover, apologize, and move on with their lives. A few ugly statements (i haven't seen the ones you mentioned, but certainly some bad stuff) shouldn't not lead us to write a person off for life

I was ready for the right to set a good example, but that obviously didn't come to fruition

Do you think she was being literally serious when she wrote "kill all men?"
