Unleash the Photoshops, let this serve as Mamnick Meme Thread and ignore whatever else your man has to say IMO. I don't see how anything can be gained from further "debate" with him.
Regarding "lynch mob" behaviour which perhaps I might be accused of - I feel more sympathy for the collaborators and colleagues than I feel the need for vengeance against Mamnick Guy (though the line between the two is blurry and it's important that I make distinction very clear from now on). I am repulsed by his selfie with Safiya Saeed last night which is, beyond all doubt, some sort of calculated face-saving manoeuvre. If I was a Muslim woman and this fucker had taken a selfie with his arm around me and posted it on Twitter, and tried to use me to retain a microscopic shred of his credibility, I would want to be told about his despicable views. The same is true if I'd made a pair of socks with him (or whatever he makes, I haven't looked at his website). To not make people aware is the greater crime - like telling your friend that their partner is cheating on them.
Disclaimer: I never Tweeted at anyone, sent any messages, etc. beyond my comments in this thread. But if there was a way of doing it non-publicly I might have.
