re: #72 gwangung

I didn’t have a problem with the Colbert segment, and neither did a lot of other Asian American activists. But I don’t have a problem with the passion displayed by Park, even though I disagree on her tactics.

But I do have a problem with folks attacking her with racial and sexist epithets. And I do have a problem with taking the focus off of Native American concerns. And I have problem with people trying to make this into a binary/ good guy-bad guy issue.

Again, some good things here, but a lot of folks haven’t acted in a very laudatory manner.

If she’s going to put herself out in public as an “activist,” I think it’s absolutely fair to criticize her opinions and yes, even to laugh at her if she deserves it. But you should be aware that the vast majority of those racist/sexist epithets directed at her are coming from right wingers, as far as I could tell.

And anyone who engages in that crap at LGF will lose their account.
