I disagree vehemently w/ Chamath Palihapitiya's critique of America criticizing subjugation of Uyghurs. But better to have a freewheeling discussion where he expressed that view, so that it can be rebutted, than a public discourse where it goes unuttered: https://t.co/WrmqUy06F5 — PolitiTweet.org

What are the most interesting debates and conversations you're following this week? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey You posted a thread.I responded, "That thread makes some rather large assumptions about what the NYPD officers told the store owners. It isn't at all clear to me that the officers lied." Not sure why you object to that conversational turn. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey I have and had no objection to you asking the NYT to do more reporting. I hope they do too. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Yes, it is unreasonable to think that the owners of the store and the cops talked about the memo, because *they talked before the memo was written.* I give up. Goodnight. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes You wrote, "If the owner is not lying and the cops really told them to not expect these guys to be held accountable, doesn't that mean the cops lied to him?" — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes "Don't expect these guys to do time" is consistent with a plea deal that gives them probation or community service but not time, or a prosecution and an acquittal. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes If you don't know, isn't it the case that the assertion by the cops could have been the truth, not a lie? I don't understand why you're confident it's a lie without knowing that fact. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes If they do I am sure they will not make the same mistake as that thread. And sure, I have all sorts of additional questions I'd love to see answered, including, *were the bad guys held to account*? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Do you know what percentage of people arrested for retail theft are prosecuted in NYC? I don't. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Lots of things, but I focused on correcting the obvious misinformation, because I noticed that it was clearly and demonstrably incorrect, and that seemed unfair to the officers. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes No, it doesn't. Perhaps it is unlikely that the guys will be held accountable, due to an inability to arrest, or a lack of evidence, or a plea deal, or a decision to focus on other cases. Do you know what percentage of retail robbers in NYC are held accountable? I don't. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes I have no claim about that larger question here. I'm just pointing out a clear flaw in that thread you cited. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes As for using this incident to undermine the new DA's agenda, yes, that is clearly what's happening. Whether that agenda is a "reform" or a step in the wrong direction is in dispute. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes No, I am saying that 1) the owners make only one claim about what the cops told them; 2) the thread you cited imputes additional claims to the NYPD officers that they certainly did not make. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes It doesn't square. I think the owners are wrong. My objection was to the claim that the NYPD lied, which is not substantiated. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes This guy is accusing "the NYPD" of lying based on a second hand account of what two random officers told a shopkeeper, as the shopkeepers remember it, and he doesn't even parse the shopkeeper's account accurately enough to avoid a clear timeline error. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Note the sentence that begins "because" https://t.co/KP3MaMQUes — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Yes. Why is that a lie? In any case, my point is that the thread you cited imputed additional statements to the cops that they certainly didn't say, barring time travel. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes No, I am saying the cops didn't tell the owner nothing would happen because of the DA's memo, because when their interaction happened, that memo hadn't been written yet. But the thread you cite says otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Notice how the piece began: "My store on 18th Street and Park Avenue South was ransacked/robbed by the same group of young men, twice in the last three weeks of December." So the NYPD showed up in December and told the shop owners no one would be caught due to a January memo? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @nytimes Yeah, whereas the thread said: https://t.co/EF2UdNtWc8 — PolitiTweet.org
