Except that's not what I said - my objection was specifically to this offensive statement "cheering on a bunch of racist white women using the terrible things RH did as an excuse to feel self-righteous and, in the process, splinter all kinds of relationships between WOC. . " That's why I linked to the blog entry I did, where one of winterfox's WOC victims spoke about how important and useful Mixon's report was.
I didn't object to your original post criticising the report - I think you're wrong, and I think there's a danger that what you say could be taken as making light of some of the abuse winterfox inflicted - but in the end the report is fair game for criticism and disagreement.
Insulting the writer in such terms, though, is what winterfox and her apologists have been doing - they know they can't disprove the facts, so they go after the messenger, and paint it as being about race, rather than about the exposure of an abuser.
