Very well said. But I think this is worth examining: "... even though that's obviously not Amelia's intent"
Regardless of intent, the predictable consequence is piling on to Shanley at a time her family is doxed and SWATed.
Shanley is an abuser. But the people going after her are terrorists. Furthermore, did Shanley punch down in this particular case... or sideways? (I understand Amelia pointed out this may indicate Shanley didn't fundamentally change from her racist past.)
These are just my concerns, not a fully-formed analysis. And if you believe this is post will lead to greater attacks, please feel welcome to delete it with my apology.
