So does this people are just human and lash out line does it apply to GC types?

Sure. With the caveat that it does not let people on either side off of consistent goading, baiting, unprovoked attacks and so on. Linehan isn’t lashing out, for example, because he does it all the time, seeks out trouble, and the pattern of his antisocial behaviour is well established.

If the person in question who said Cass was committing genocide says things of that ilk all the time, maybe they are an arsehole too and if so, fuck them because they’re not helping anyone. I honestly don’t know because I don’t know what tweet or post you’re referring to. If it was a one off, maybe it was the bad news that day that pushed them over the edge.

The point is there are human responses and bad actors on both sides because it is an issue that provokes very strong emotional responses. If you don’t know, it doesn’t hurt to give people the benefit of the doubt until you do.

There's plenty of bad actors on both sides on that I agree.
