If a high school senior told a college admissions officer, *I want to attend your institution to become a leader and change the world," they'd likely view that favorably. This reader has an interesting contrary view: https://t.co/xGjkZ5k3BB https://t.co/btswTn6V4V — PolitiTweet.org

@IndivCincy @ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs In fact you will not find me intimidating, threatening, or harassing anyone, so I'm not sure what your beef is here — PolitiTweet.org

@IndivCincy @ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs What a bizarre paraphrase. I did not suggest nor do I believe that anyone must simply accept harassment/intimidation. — PolitiTweet.org

@MarcBodnick @ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs @TheFIREorg @glukianoff Probably waiting to see/probing if a class actually was cancelled and if so why rather than commenting based on a single thread from a non verified Twitter account that may or may not be accurate and is regardless bereft of key details! — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs Okay but not using it means ceasing to ask *is this cancel culture* when these kerfuffles come up in the news. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@born_a_joneser @ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs Given how easily humans skip into irrational prejudice when skin color categories are increased in salience it seems like malpractice to choose terminology for a line of study that needlessly bakes such language in, guaranteeing confusion — PolitiTweet.org

Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs I agree with all those critiques of the label. Nevertheless, it is widely used in the American vernacular by people who mean *something* by it, and I think the most common something they mean is something that bothers you too and that you're complaining about here. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs Here, you think a dubious claim that a class was problematically racist led to its knee jerk cancellation. (I am still hazy on the facts in this case.) — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @danielwinlander @trizzlor @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs You wrote, "The problem arises when it is cancelled because someone doesn’t like it, especially when they are using a distorted view of it to get it cancelled." Imagine that happening again & again. That's what many people mean when they say "cancel culture" and you agree w them — PolitiTweet.org

@danielwinlander @trizzlor @ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs I don't look at that and think *definitely a racist course*. I do think it's a flawed course description that began too many questions and presumes too many contested answers, and as a student I would wonder if the professor was open to contrary perspectives — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @rasmansa @danielwinlander @CathyYoung63 @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs I've had Dr. Mansa twist my words in egregiously inaccurate ways too many times to engage a question like this on a thread with him. I'm happy to discuss with you elsewhere. — PolitiTweet.org

@XBillups @thomaschattwill @kmele @coldxman I think he's articulating the most defensible subset, which definitely exists, but that humans are really bad at thinking clearly when the salience of skin color is raised with the results here much as you'd expect — PolitiTweet.org

Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs Are you suggesting there are academics who use "whiteness" as an antiwhite pejorative in their general communications but carefully keep to a non pejorative meaning in the classroom? — PolitiTweet.org
