Umm, in this context, yes it was bad to be loyal to one’s home area. I’m tired of this distraction.

I don’t get it, either. A LOT of people who’ve made spectacularly bad decisions were interesting characters because most people are complicated characters. Can we stop pretending “Well, he wasn’t as bad as ____.”

“These false and misleading attacks are so false and misleading that, rather than defend myself with the obvious truth, I’m going to run away hiding.”
