They decided to fake their own outrage when they decided to pretend the accusation is more inappropriate than the behavior that drove the accusation.

As an participant in the national dialogue it is absolutely my responsibility to identify when people are not being honest in conversation and to respond to that and not to their superficial presentation.

I don't decide if they're genuine or not I decide if I believe they are genuine or not. I don't have to presume they are acting in good faith or with honest intentions. They have not earned that benefit of the doubt.
