Brooklyn Buzzfeeder Who #Cancelled Carson King, and Then Got #Cancelled Himself, Claims He's The Victim Here, and the Victim of "Right-Wing Ideologues"

More Calvin on his racist tweets being dug up after he did the same to Carson King: “It was just a taste of what I assume that women and journalists of color suffer all the time, but the kind of locality and regional virality of the story made it so intense."

I like how he added in that now I know what it's like to be a woman or a minority.

You’re not going to believe this. But Aaron Calvin is now the victim everyone.

Other Buzzfeeders -- and Buzzfeed pioneered and monetized this scalp-hunting madness -- rushed to say that social media scalp-hunting isn't faaaair when deployed against its chief practioners:

The worst part of this is the Des Moines Register talking about how their editors debated whether to mention the bad old tweets dug up by their reporter, decided to mention them lower in the story, but are now firing the reporter anyhow.

You work for BuzzFeed. Post a cat gif and shut the fuck up.

Especially Andrew Kaczynski and Oliver Darcy.

Aaron Calvin wants to thank all the people who reached out to him or were "physically with [him]."

Just want to say thank you to everyone who has reached out to me or physically been with me to support me over the past week. It’s made the world of difference and been quite literally life-affirming.

It should be noted that some NeverTrumper Virtue Signalers spent days virtue signalling their hatred of the right for finding and publicizing Aaron Calvin's old, racist tweets -- but not saying anything much about Aaron Calvin digging up Carson King's even older racist tweets.

“These are the new rules,” Jesus said as he took another 2x4 to the Roman’s knees. “I would love not to do this! But these are the rules, and the rules shift depending on how our opponents act, that makes sense and is not the way toddlers think.”

I mean a man got a million dollars and his face on a beer can, and gave the money to charity. But now he got a million dollars and gave the money to charity, and no longer has his face on a beer can. This was a big deal.

“We’re at WAR. This is WAR,” he explained, on Twitter, while watching the game.

Alex Griswold has trashed conservatives for AR-15 support and not wanting to ban plastic straws in the last month alone. https://t.co/092HrTEzJX

By the way, super-lawyer Ron Coleman notes that Griswold's preferred epithet for icky conservatives -- "toddlers" -- just so happens to be the insult of choice recently adopted by Media Matters personnel:

"Toddlers" is this week's Media Matters guidance on Trump epithets. Just mentioning
