Larry Heather.
I can distinguish between whether I agree/disagree with someone and whether the tone they strike in interactions I have with them or observe them having is arrogant (Naheed Nenshi comes to mind). I think any reasonably self-reflective person can too. If it takes dismissing the lived experience or intelligence of Farrell critics for some Farrell fans to feel better about her choice not to run again, well I suppose that is an understandably emotional response.
