Welp.

Alexi McCammond announced she’s decided to “part ways” with Teen Vogue and won’t take over as editor in chief:

Great job, woke mob:

The staff of Teen Vogue successfully blocked an extremely well qualified Black woman from becoming its next editor in chief over tweets from when she was a teen that she apologized for years ago. https://t.co/0tpA4wuQro

Keep in mind, she was 17 at the time of the offensive tweets:

Her tweets were appalling. Totally unacceptable. She was also 17 years old. She's 27 now, has apologized and grown. Do we want to be a society that says the worst things you posted on social media in high school follow you around forever? https://t.co/1wXyMq5Qrn

“Hope” things change won’t get it done:

There is a legitimate debate to be had about how to judge people for actions in the past, to what extent they grow, etc. But I would hope we could all agree that judging adults in professional settings for what they did as a teenager is ridiculous. https://t.co/rAhBDBVfPd
