alt Hacker NewsWhy are you so hung up on scrutinising Blow’s words to defend him, but then take the critic’s words with a broad general brush to dismiss them?
You even decry the lack of factual evidence in the critic’s case, but for some reason said nothing about Blow doing the same first.
That’s what looks silly to me. You’re not treating them the same.
Not scrutinizing Blow's words. One must be extremely careful when calling anyone fascist or similar labels. The burden of proof is on the accuser, not on the accused. It's obviously right to demand precision from the accuser, and to interpret whatever the accused said in good faith.
