You can't judge a man's principles by how he acts when he's in a position of strength

If someone in a position of power uses that power poorly, it's probably okay to judge their principles based on those actions.

Here's an alternate take: don't reward a business for taking any stand for a short period of time. Businesses are prone to convenience in their actions. I don't feel betrayed by Twitter doing this because it is utterly predictable.
