Racism justifies harassment and home invasion? I don’t think I can necessarily agree with that.
The point Malki was making, I think (and the way I take it) is less about the purpose or content of the discourse and more about the harassment veiled in false civility as a means of silencing discussion. Pretend he’s not a sea lion, but a conservative, and you’ll get the intended effect.

Sea lion is slang for a type of behavior a person exhibits not an immutable characteristic of the person like the color of their skin. They didn’t have to prove the behavior because the behavior expressed IS the behavior.
