      It’s like a headline that says “man diddles little boys”. It’s the act of messing with kids that’s gross, not that it’s worse because it was boys. Or if a teacher drops the n bomb in a class and someone saying “it’s worse because there were black kids in the class”. No, that’s not worse, it’s not less bad in any way.

      But the headline I think is showing the hyprocacy and that’s important too.

          Ha. Good fucking luck with that. I got here about a year ago and you could expect that people would listen and engage but over the last few months, it’s gotten like reddit was a few years ago. Once the dog pile starts, it just goes.
