Your ignorance in this context is really gross.

The fact that it's willful ignorance makes it even more gross.

I'm not really concerned about my ignorance on the details. My feeling has been and continues to be that if people with guns tell you not to be in a place, you should not be in that place

You think you can stop fascists without going against the orders of people with guns? Yeah that's not how that works.

It's one thing to be happy to concede your constitutional right to assemble and protections for the press to bullies with guns.

It's another to distance yourself from the brave injured journalists and blame the people with cameras for the actions of tyrants.

What does "Don’t be in a zero zone, that’s all there is to it." and "I agree with you fully." mean, if you're not endorsing someone who blames the journalists for being harmed while *checks notes* doing their job reporting on civil unrest with cameras in proximity to armed police?

Yup, it certainly is. Best place to be when there's cops out there and a crowd of people determined to be where the cops tell them not to be. I'm not disagreeing with you, and frankly I don't see it as an insult. I'm not where the police are, and I encourage everyone else to take steps to be where the police aren't.
