> a measured response instead of a purely reactionary response will just make things worse.

I'm not sure I understand, would you clarify this for me? It's been my experience that pure reaction is usually bad for discourse, so I'd like to know more.

Going from the context of the comment, I believe parent meant something along the lines of:

"we need a measured response instead of a purely reactionary response which will just make things work"

At least, that was my first impression, definitely could be interpreting the comment incorrectly.
