> people have different interests. and not everybody wants to > be an activist. in fact people should be encouraged to talk > about different issues. Yep.

You would think these activists would be able to show some sympathy to a woman who's hormones are probably going crazy. What she is supposed to have said doesn't even appear to be opposed to what the BLM activists want - the media IS a big problem in all of this. They of all people should realize that the media has had a big hand in the public's positive and negative perception of their cause. But, that message is opposed to what The Verge believe - so I guess we understand the motive behind the witch hunt. The Verge should be ashamed.
