This is such an interesting scissor moment. Is it bad that Scott Wiener is being verbally and physically assaulted for participating in an ostensibly non-political event?
Oh yeah. Yes it is. That's very bad.
But this has been happening to the people Scott hates for close to a decade and Scott has encouraged it. The best option would be to stop it completely. But we all know that if we stop it for Scott, he will simply tell everyone to do it to his political enemies.
Oh well. It sucks that we eroded the norms that are necessary for a functional society. Have fun with that, Scott! I hope no one treats you as badly as you have encouraged people to treat your political enemies.
Bolding mine. This kind of harassment is all HAHAHAHAHA funny when little old ladies with MAGA hats are being bullied and harassed outside of rallies, and it's a tOtAlShAmEyOuGuYs when some homeowner who just wants to get some sleep gets his head split open because he dared ask the rioters to keep it down. But when it happens to you? Not so funny then, eh.
