@PatrickIber It seems like you're begging the question as to what "the point" should be, and then casting a failure to share your conclusion about that as excluding context in a way that's misleading. But as John sees it, the point, or at least one worthwhile point, is that — PolitiTweet.org

@PatrickIber If so I don't understand what's unreasonable about John focusing on what he wanted to instead of what you would want him to focus on. So why "pose of reasonableness"? — PolitiTweet.org

@PatrickIber You seem to be in agreement with McWhorter that the rock was a stupid distraction that wasted time and money, but upset that he pointed that out instead of finding an example of campus activism that wasn't a waste of time. Is that right? — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @CathyYoung63 You seem to be deflecting from the substance of the matter because you've realized you can't prevail in our disagreement on that basis. Why not just admit you had a false impression? — PolitiTweet.org

@Ceyx54 You should follow smarter right leaning commentators instead of imagining that the attributes of the ones you made bad choices to follow apply universally. Also, John isn't right-leaning. — PolitiTweet.org

No shade, but no citation either. The misrepresentation of critics of campus illiberalism—in this case, John McWhorter—is hugely frustrating. So much strawmanning and hyperbole that attempts to discredit by imputing positions far more extreme / less defensible than the real ones. https://t.co/pTttO6KgkB — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias @dandrezner Indeed, because the official public health posture of an objectively correct answer about whether a kid of a certain age should or shouldn't get a vaccine is false-its a clear call for adults but, at some young enough age, a judgment call about which reasonable people will differ — PolitiTweet.org

@NewLiberalsPod For example, The Fifth Column, Nick Gillespie, Cathy Young, Coleman Hughes, Thad Russell, Glenn Loury, Phil Magness, Sam Harris, and Bari Weiss would all, in my estimation, give fair interviews where she had ample time to state her case and wasn't demagogued. — PolitiTweet.org
