I think there's an excellent argument to be made as to the underlying factual
validity of the stance(s).
None of which addresses the point that it's off mission and a distraction from
the mission, and will attract even further off-mission criticism and attacks
and resentment.
Someone out there (and not just a tiny minority) is going to disagree strongly
with the position; I don't. But I care that we made them our enemies here and
in this manner. I donate to and support the ACLU and immigration lawyer groups
when I want to make those points. The WMF picking this fight hurts the WMF.
