I am not going to respond on the 2-3, because I think that that are unrepresentative. They are a small part of a boatload of quotes touching on race and other prejudices, often in manifestly hurtful ways, and clearly the "soft" platform chosen by RR for his "apology" was not going to tee up the hard ones. (Do you doubt he thought about where to respond? He found one that was happy to mix the offense up in a cocktail containing lots of self-promotion.) Not all of the tweets land with the same blatant force. The ones quoted are nonetheless a part of the very large body of "work" that is being discussed. If they were all there were, we likely would not be having this conversation.
