Let's not underestimate the impact that certain kinds of being "inappropriate" can have on people — the sense of powerlessness it instills, especially when the offense is dismissed and minimized by elements of the wider society. It's sad but not surprising to see this sort of response (EDIT: her response).

Your reply is not very relevant to my comment though. Also I might be much more sensitive than you think and you are sad and unsurprised for nothing.

EDIT: I' m sorry, I misunderstood you.

I'm at fault for a lack of clarity. This is a difficult and unfortunate discussion, and let's try to appreciate all of us as whole people today in the fullness of all our experiences and lives lived.

> happy that the person died

That's simply a lie. Her words support that she is happy about him not harassing anyone anymore, but not about his death per se. Which she explicitly emphasizes down the thread again.

Curious if the same people getting upset about her words were similarly upset when Richard Stallman said after hearing of Steve Job's death "I'm not glad he's dead but I'm glad he's gone".
