"there should be no consequences for people who are, in many ways, qwhite like me."
@ClydeHaberman ---Clyde isn't just Maggie's Dad, he was at the Times forever.
I confess to some ambivalence about Chris Cuomos suspension. Its deserved on many levels. But wouldnt you help your brother if he fell into trouble, even of his own making?

A lot to work with here
("fell into some trouble" lol), but I would submit that most of us would not actually do what Chris Cuomo did, or anything analogous, to help our "brothers." Sure I would help my brother, but I wouldn't do *that* to help my brother. Make sure he had a good lawyer. Help him figure out how to stop abusing people. That kind of thing.
And the point here isn't simply,
"oh, well, family is family, you can sympathize a bit," it's
"since you can sympathize a bit, it seems a bit harsh for the man to be suspended from his job." This is
"there should be no consequences for people who are, in many ways, qwhite like me."

elieve people when they tell you who they are.
