I mean, as a regressive progressive, who do you side with? The LGBT people who felt hurt by Ames' tweets and refusal to have sex with a bisexual person, or Ames' right as a woman to dictate who she has sex with? Then there's the nasty bit of "progressive allies" going into their usual social media feeding frezy and help push someone to suicide, which is a terrible look.
It is no wonder the thread is a shit show when you have so many progressive interests directly clashing with each other and the type of "social "activism" they love to do got someone to kill themselves.
