    I’m glad this is posted in blahaj. Easily could become bait for offensive comments.

    More on point – she isn’t merely controversial. That would imply that the reasonableness of her position is debatable, but it’s simply wrong. She’s been unacceptable for a long time because of her extremely inappropriate statements and actions, which from her high-visibility position causes real harm. To me, this isn’t new information.
