"...In an answer to a Twitter user who wrote: “I think you too frequently confuse ‘truth’ with ‘obsessive and unnecessary dedication to accuracy’..." Where to even begin with all that is wrong with that assertion? And Dawkins apologized to them?! SMH....

I think Dawkins just knows how to pick his battles. Even if he stood by his statement unapologetically and tried to explain his perspective to a bunch of SJW twitterers, how long would it take? My guess is something between too long and infinity. It's not right of course but these people are like piranhas and social media is their pond.

The odd thing is I have seen him be unapologetic and hold the line at other points which is one of the things I respect about the man. Rule #1 of dealing with SJWs in my experience is to never, ever apologize to them as you potentially would to a reasonable person. They take it as a sign of weakness and will just amp up the attacks until you are apologizing constantly. There is no appeasing the vast majority of them so it is pointless to even try.

The liberal cuck said, "the truth is racist!"
He must be stopped.
