"An alternative tack, at least if you’re on the internet, is to not engage in the conversation entirely."

Wait, what? Which part?

I've done it. The key is to find the logic in the character. Everyone fancies themselves to be on the side of the angels. Once you find out the character's reason for thinking that way, it's easier to step into the role.

"Plus, saying that piling on Dunham automatically lumps you in with the women-haters is too easy, lacks nuance, and is untrue."

Eh, I'm not seeing much in the way of outrage (subjective, of course). I'm seeing more stuff along the lines of "Well, yeah, Lena Dunham would say exactly that."
