@jeffjarvis It's a lazy trope I see again and again, always offered with breezy confidence, as if it's self evident, even though it replies wholly on the speaker speculating about the internal motivations of others. It's really quite remarkable. — PolitiTweet.org

@jeffjarvis I see that people of many races hold the positions you attribute wholly and without evidence or even explanation to white guys wanting to keep their power, so I know that you're wrong, and I wonder why you don't know that. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@jeffjarvis What is your evidence for that claim about the motives of others? — PolitiTweet.org

I hope @BarackObama emphasizes the need to protect free speech in his remarks today on disinformation as much as he did recently in Chicago. My thoughts on that issue after attending the Chicago conference: https://t.co/3VC7EQyRFt — PolitiTweet.org

@dansereduick @onekade No one who has asked the question I asked in this conversation is motivated by that view and there is no logical connection between the question and that view. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey I think you're right that the account has made lots of objectionable posts but also right that the article focused exclusively on what is objectionable about it in a way that elided its many reasonable posts and this left readers unclear on some factors that made it popular — PolitiTweet.org

@michaelbd (Also maybe I don't understand Pinterest? I thought it was, like, here's photos that capture the visual aesthetic I want at my wedding. What kind of climate misinformation would appear there?) — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@michaelbd Unlike his Chicago comments, in which he explicitly took care to call himself a near free speech absolutist, that reading list gives some reason for concern. Hence my curiosity at what he'll say. Coincidentally I have a piece coming out that quotes his Chicago words at length — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@michaelbd I'll be curious to hear what he says. If it's consistent with his remarks in Chicago it won't be pro-censorship but will push for transparency requirements from platforms. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffreyASachs If you've found a way for the media to prevent conservative talk radio hosts from indulging in glaring inconsistencies don't hold out on me! I spent 10 years trying to figure that one out!; — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@onekade I wasn't sure but wondered bc 5 minutes ago in a separate thread you made several false and uncharitable allegations against Josh and I in the space of a few minutes and retracted none when confronted with the fact that you imputed beliefs to us we didn't state and don't hold. — PolitiTweet.org

@mariabustillos More on this tomorrow, but for now, I agree that (say) it's good to be against what Ronald Sterling said or what Bill Cosby did. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@mariabustillos My definition of cancel culture is not "denunciation of deceitful, rotten people and behavior," any more than that is my definition of Puritanism or McCarthyism or authoritarian moral panics, the tradition out of which "cancel culture" as I understand it grows. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffreyASachs I'd say I dislike DeSantis even more now than I already did then, I would still much prefer him to Trump, there are many other Republicans I'd rather see win, and he still strikes me as the best bet to beat Trump, though I do think that Ukraine may have put Trump in a — PolitiTweet.org

Anyone who purports to dislike "cancel culture" should be able to understand why critics of Libs of Tik Tok (or Project Veritas or Chris Rufo's anti-Disney campaign) don't like them—they're "cancel culture" weaponized against rather than weaponized by left progressives. — PolitiTweet.org

@onekade @jbarro If we're going to teach about gender identity in schools, clarifying its nature so that it is taught well is indeed relevant! — PolitiTweet.org

@onekade @jbarro and whether there is an "epidemic" of them confused about whether they are trans, I have no idea what the numbers are or what would constitute an epidemic. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@onekade @jbarro educational institutions and corporations and people all over America are trying to figure out how to talk and think about gender and gender identity. For all these reasons, I find the idea that gaining clarity on these questions has no relevance to be very odd. As for kids — PolitiTweet.org
