This quote struck me. I’d like to be a reassuring voice that no, you are. This piece is evidence of it. Masterful, and thank you for writing.

Pull back your knee.

In all fairness, despite reddits problems, after going though the articles of hate on Jason, there is an awful lot of people defending him and trashing the bad redditors. Every dark place has its bright spots.
