I think that it's a worthy goal, but I don't think that we should even aim to do it 100% of the time.

Careful, sympathetic understanding may reveal that bigoted words were not aimed with bigoted intent, as in the case of some of Dworkin's writings; but I strongly believe that, layered with our sympathetic understanding, there must be accountability for the simple flat literality of what was said.

Sympathy should not destroy accountability.
