You're 16. You're being positioned as a high-profile face during a week that's likely to be incredibly controversial and vitriolic. You may see this as getting a chance to deliver your words, but they're using you to make a point. Maybe the same point you want to make; maybe not.

All this shit, at the end of the day, is anger at people who survive their attacks.
If their lynching kills you and your career: you deserve it. You were held accountable.
If their lynching doesn't kill you: stop crying. People disagreed with you.

"Grifter" is an intramural critique; a Leftist is more likely to just call you a nazi/racist/gaybasher/what-have-you.
Otherwise, 100% spot-on.

At least further down they part ways amicably and with some respect.
If all media personalities had that level of class (low bar), we might not have to initiate Day of the Rope on them.
I miss that part of online debate. Parting ways not on bad terms.
