So it goes, dans la belle internet

So it appears that someone *else* from BoingBoing turns out to be a passive-aggressive douche-wazzle. In this case, a racist one. Xeni gave a sortof-apology about the Violet Blue incident; let's see if this even garners enough publicity to force Teresa Nielsen Hayden to do the same. (probably not; this is lj after all)

(Still don't know what's up with this one, either, exactly, because the original stuff is all deleted...?)

Yeah, all we have is that freezepage of tnh's original post, rather than the comments of her husband that started the whole thing.

On the other hand, Hayden doesn't exactly give a good accounting for herself or her husband other than "waaaah you mean brown people who don't even take yourselves seriously made my husband feel bad and you make soooo many good people feel like bad people why can't you make us feel good about our lack of racism like you're supposed to I have so many black friends. :("

And from what I've been able to scrounge up, this isn't the first time Hayden herself has been involved in drama on teh intarwebs.
