@wireties
Fighting cultural/institutional prejudices is exactly where the real issues are. This doesn't "dilute" anything. And I certainly think the ones being "condemned" know that they aren't in a legal setting right now.
Once again you are you make the false connection that I Am undermining the movement as a whole ("the footing Ahmed stands on"). We shouldn't continue this discussion anymore if you can't comprehend how Ahmed and the larger issue can be addressed separately.
