Sounds like a pretty horrible thing to accuse someone of, right? No Lindelof said he -Lindelof - was complicit in white supremacy. Now unless he’s been unwittingly supporting the kind of racists where such an extreme term - and all it connotes - would be accurate, it’s only reasonable to assume he believes most of us - including Moore - are also “complicit”. (The rest of the interview only reinforces this.) I don’t want to support the work of someone who talks like a brainwashed cult member.

Haven't read the interview and complicit might be too harsh a word -- benefited certainly fits. Our country's inability to have frank discussions around racism, how it is the foundation on which this country was built, how it still permeates society today, is why I think we've been unable to make the meaningful strides forward that could have allowed for a proper healing, or at least a more widespread healing, of the deep wounds these atrocities have caused. I applaud Lindelof for his willingness to bring up the topic and his understanding that racism and white supremacy are still problems today. Deflecting with derisive sound bites like "brainwashed cult member" certainly aren't a help. But I might be a pinko-Commie-snowflake-SJW. What're you gonna do?
