DOIN IT WRONG
FAIL, ELIZABETH BEAR.
"I am tired of all of these insults, Internets! I was trying to MODEL what GOOD BEHAVIOR looks like even though my critics were DEAD WRONG. So all of you just STOP TALKING NOW. I am turning this Internet around and going home! You are all grounded! And if you're a POC and if you're upset? SAVE IT FOR WISCON, where those of you who can afford to travel to Wisconsin for a convention can talk about it!
But I'm not racist!"
Yeah. Because telling everybody to sit down and shut up really makes you an ally.
