Then don't use "the kind of environment in which one elects a President..." (in 2016) as a defense.
If you must use the "they did it first" defense, at least use specific examples from 2013 to defend her.

- leereeves 8y agoIn response to your edit, I don't agree that white men should be expected to endure such racist abuse just because "young Asian-American women have a lot more to fear from young white men than vice versa". It's worse for some than for others but it's bad for everyone. But I doubt I'll change your mind about that. The left mostly seems to want a selective silencing of right-wing voices. They defend Sarah Jeong, but the NY Times fired Quinn Norton under similar circumstances. Alex Jones is being silenced without a word of protest from the people defending Sarah Jeong. Twitter suspended Candice Owens for rephrasing Sarah Jeong. If the NY Times wants to be left-wing publication, that's fine, but we should recognize it as such.
