      Holy shit. See, kids, this is why context is important.

      Thanks for filling me in.

      Edit: Although I typically accept the victim’s story, it’s hard for me to accept JD Vance’s word on anything. Nonetheless, if he was the victim of abuse, I do feel badly about that, but it’s no excuse for his bigotry.
