@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs I'll bet I can find an academic who uses it in ways that seem to mean that. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
I think @thomaschattwill @kmele @coldxman and others consistently seek to abolish the social constructs of slavers but are regularly stymied not only by bigots but by a left-academic milieu that raises the salience of racial identity in the guise of problemitizing it. Join *them* — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @IndivCincy @JeffreyASachs There is no one thing "whiteness" means in an academic context..those who deploy the term mean various different things by it — PolitiTweet.org

@pmcall Only if DeSantis is a fool who has paid no attention to the fate of all the other people who thought they could benefit from Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeremyBeckham What's the example of beating Trump in a primary by paying attention to him? — PolitiTweet.org

"Look Tucker, you're trying to bait me just like Anderson Cooper did last week, but I hate to speak ill of anyone that reminds me of so much of my beloved late great-grandfather, so I'm going to focus on my plan to..." — PolitiTweet.org

@JeremyBeckham I disagree. — PolitiTweet.org

I actually think that if Ron DeSantis ran a campaign where he consistently refused to criticize but also refused to engage or even to acknowledge Donald Trump it would slowly drive Trump insane and push him to new levels of self-sabotaging, attention-seeking desperation. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs Finally, I realize I know relatively little about how *we shall offer this course/not offer it* type decisions get made at different institutions and I am interested to know more about that. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs based on a narrow rather than an unreasonably expansive definition of racist. I also want students to know they have the right to object to a course even in ways I might find unreasonable and criticize on those grounds depending on the details. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs I think it's a bad thing for colleges to teach racist courses. I would need to know more about this particular course to opine on whether it is racist. I have my doubts about that. Regardless I want faculty rather than admins to decide — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs If admins I am opposed to this on *who decides* grounds. If it was *the department* I'd want to know more about how course development and approval usually works and what happened in this case before laying out my response. Is there more info somewhere? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs Just had 5 minutes to read up on this and I have questions. I always want faculty, not administrators, in charge of academic matters in higher ed. So did admins cancel the class, or a faculty department head, or the professor herself? — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @CathyYoung63 @rasmansa @thomaschattwill @JeffreyASachs Just seeing this, will read up later and share my thoughts — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @AuntoV (I will make the case that there is good reason for asymmetry here in the social stigma against antiblackness, which I support, and also that my sense is that there is an assymetry in the social stigma against it.) — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @AuntoV Sure, but I must go to bed now, let's continue tomorrow, — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @AuntoV Do you think expressing an antiblack view or an antiwhite view is more likely to get a person cancelled? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @AuntoV I think your critique of the term cancel culture fails because the flaws you accurately point out apply just as fully to lots of terms that you are happy to use. — PolitiTweet.org

It is still immoral to cage humans for smoking marijuana; thankfully it happens less frequently today than it did in 2014. Progress! https://t.co/hG3nn3LHhk — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @AuntoV Maybe. Our identitarian culture tends to give members of a given group much broader deference in saying dumb things about their group than other groups. — PolitiTweet.org
