re: #24 Mattand

How do you not fucking remember making comments like that? You really honestly believe this was a one-off thing?

It was 12 years ago, and she writes A LOT. I don’t think it’s that much of a stretch that she might not have remembered them. And keep in mind that in 2006, these kinds of casual gay-bashing comments were totally ordinary, even among left wing bloggers. (There’s an article at The Nation about this very point, with plenty of examples.)

Things have changed more than I think people realize since then.
