Wow. On top of everything, that's also a very problematic cheer. Good on her for not backing down.

@Juventina: @LuckyFrog: I think the trick is not to think in terms of innocent and guilty here. We cannot say if he's innocent or guilty. We can only say that the accusers, and Assange himself as well, deserve their day in court and that what Assange's defense lawyers (and in turn, his supporters) have been doing is…
@LuckyFrog: It depends what you mean by pro-Assange, I guess. You could make the argument that you support the professional, but not the personal. I personally can't do that, but some people can, I'm sure.
Wikileaks might be good; Assange might be a rapist.
Okay then, I'd like to reclaim stars and stripes.
@mahmahmahpokerface: Damn straight.
@mahmahmahpokerface: "The people above weren't faithful to each other- so they are adulterers, they are immoral, and they are irresponsible. If I knew them I would hate them."
@adorkable: Same. The article and decision to publish it is tacky, but the judgment calls about the people themselves? You don't know until it happens to you.
@mahmahmahpokerface: Except that when the star/tier shit was introduced it was made very clear that with the ability to promote comes the responsibility to only promote those comments that aren't hateful and contribute to the discussion and stick to the rules and shit.
@femme-bot: High horses are fun to ride, I guess.
@LindyLou: Nah, I'm not criticizing commentary on the article as such, but just the judging about the relationship. And there's a lot of that around here right now.
@EndangeredRed: The 'adulterer wedding announcements'? You approved that why?
This is basically the story of my mother and my stepdad (though theirs is much less cutesy) so I'm not gonna judge.
You go, (Glen) Coco!
@mgallagher713: Yes, I live to be mean-spirited. If I haven't posted 8 mean . gifs before breakfast, something bad happens.
@Princess Leela: But the post isn't about how people shouldn't be allowed to feel a part of the celebration. But they weren't a part of the oppression, now were they? So it's not the same.
@ZiggyStarPuff: If you are championing shit just so you can pat yourself on the back, then you're doing it wrong.
@kung fu lola: Which is a comment to the post.
@Miss Suka: Yes.
@SubvertAParadigm: Yes, for the fuck of shit no one is saying they shouldn't rejoice. They just shouldn't make it ABOUT THEM.
