> Perhaps the "issue at hand" can be as simple as software for you.

Ok. You're actually right. I regret saying that software is the only important thing.

Honestly, I guess that part of my comment was a post-rationalization, but what actually bothers me is the hypocrisy of the media and society in general, because they don't apply the same rigor when an institution or person does or says much more despicable when they like those things. But that has nothing to do with this specific issue.

>the chinstroking "most plausible scenario" is pedophile apologia.

Nope, it isn't. Many of his comments actually are, but if you analyze the "most plausible scenario" quote, it has nothing to do with it.
