The Redheaded Libertarian Kinda Walks Her Ugly 'Blood Isn't Pink' Take Back ... But Not Really

Fuzzy Chimp

People say a lot of stupid stuff on Twitter.

Or X. Or Twixxer. Or TwitterX. Or whatever we're calling it these days - I tend to say Twitter because I'm old and stuck in my ways. GET OFF MY LAWN. But anyway, I digress.

As I was saying, people say a lot of stupid stuff on Twitter. At one point or another we probably all say something we shouldn't, whether we're angry, or inebriated, or just really annoying and stupid, we all do it. And as a rule, if you say something stupid and it goes VIRAL the best thing to do is apologize. Own it. My bad, I shouldn't have said that, thanks for holding me accountable, yadda yadda yadda.

Especially if you have any sort of audience or reach. It's just good practice and makes sense, ya know? 

All of this being said, if you spent any time at all on Twitter yesterday, you came across some pretty repugnant tweets from The Redheaded Libertarian. Basically, she implied that the blood in a picture where an Israeli child had allegedly been killed was fake. She went on and on about how blood isn't pink and even after she was called out she doubled down and made snide comments.

It wasn't pretty.

When the pushback became more than she could handle, she deleted the tweets and tried to move on to posting about Christmas and other things, and still, people refused to let it go. And I hardly blame them.

Now today, she's come out with a rather lengthy post about why she did what she did and said what she said ... 

This is long, so I've copied some of the more important parts of her post so you don't have to leave and go look:

I’ll continue being critical of all news out of Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Gaza, and America because we don’t need an emotionally driven world war which is where we’re headed if this conflict involves Iran, and America is woefully unprepared for that thanks to the Covid purge and the woke reeducation of troops.

No state is beyond reproach. No state loves any of us.

I understand emotions are high. But please know that you as a Muslim, a Jew, a Christian, are not the state. My criticism of what the state says to you at war time is not a criticism of you or your beliefs. You are an individual separate from the state. I have love for you and I wish you peace. Please do not define or conflate yourself with a government.

Don't look at me like that, I didn't write it. Oh, and she is hiding replies on this post which is really almost as cowardly as shutting responses down. If she really wants to address this, she should allow the people she's pissed off a chance to dialogue with her. 

Nice try but NOPE.

She should just try this, 'I shouldn't have said what I said and I apologize for it. Thank you for holding me accountable so I can learn from this and write smarter and better things in the future.' Simple. We don't need a bunch of babbling about 'the state'. 

Look, none of us is perfect ... maybe next time just own that it was a stupid thing to say and move on.
