re: #385 Anymouse 🌹

I’m fine with dropping the debate. I don’t consider shielding racists from their actions in the public square,. which they proudly recorded, a worthy position.

If that is the position you’re taking, then you also don’t consider my position (backed with evidence from journalists, newspapers which report juvenile names in crimes [which this is not], or law [which doesn’t prohibit reporting juvenile names, as I also backed up] as unworthy.

So we can drop it, with the understanding we disagree, but we don’t agree.

Generic condemnation of racist acts, but don’t condemn the racists. Got it.

As I noted above, if even one of the people involved had stepped in and said “this isn’t cool,” that person would be all over the press (by name).

Your argument is it’s okay to name people when they do good things, but they should be shielded when they do bad things.

Apparently my upbringing, ethics, or something, prohibits me from seeing that as logical or reasonable.

So good-night y’all. I need a break from this place when racism is defended as “we shouldn’t out racists.”

You’re doing this again.Passive aggressive bullshit. I specifically said the kids deserve all the criticism they can get. I just don’t see the good in identifying them by name or seeking out their social media accounts. Everything isn’t so black and white.
