When did people turn on LMM "like a vicious pack of wolves"? Did he get literally devoured alive? Did I miss something?
The reality is that no one on earth is ever going to be totally beyond criticism, and no one on earth ever should be beyond criticism. But I feel like the most reasonable thing to do in general is to judge things on the merit. Even if you disagree with the criticisms of LMM in this case, I don't see how you get from there to concluding that criticizing racism is bad in general, or whatever. I don't see how that's more reasonable.
