pro-slavery advocates quoting pro-slavery verses, and anti-slavery advocates quoting anti-slavery verses, and then a growing strain of anti-slavery advocates saying "don't look at the trees; look at the forest." And the forest, quite clearly, has an arc that bends toward good things like liberation and respect.

Oh, interesting. Has this tactic been applicable to liberation movements since?
