@Angry_Sociology @trizzlor No, I would say infringements on free speech, free inquiry, and academic freedom are important problems that people like me will keep touting, and that you should align with our correct position instead of turning it into a needless political loss for your shortsighted faction — PolitiTweet.org

A year ago, a dear friend died. At the time I lacked the wherewithal to talk about it. Mostly, I still do. But she was unlike anyone, we lost her too soon, and I know she'd want to be remembered by the innocent man she helped exonerate. https://t.co/UFOdRGqCf6 RIP, Liz. — PolitiTweet.org

@WineJerk @VinodSreeharsha @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs I did not think he was antiracist. I thought he was a different variety of racist. — PolitiTweet.org

@MerkinMuffley5 @CaytonicCox @cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs No, I'm not. This parody which I didn't recognize as such isn't to the discredit of the left at all. It is wrongheaded as stated. I could find lots of examples of actual leftists making analogous errors. But this Tweet isn't on them at all. — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @CaytonicCox @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs I mean, I have never argued that lefty race essentialism is equivalent to white nationalism. Mistaking a parody of the former for the real thing in no way implies that. — PolitiTweet.org

@sewellchan I know, we're all good. I try to act as if everyone is being constructive, albeit falling short of that, but your reputation for constructiveness *always* precedes you. — PolitiTweet.org

@sewellchan I sensed racism and Tweeted for that reason, not "to stir trouble," but you're correct that I incorrectly assessed the nature of the trouble. Always glad for your oversight in any sort of thing I misunderstand — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs Maybe you believe that sort of thing is a straw man? If so we should have that conversation, beginning with Okun and the astonishing spread of her work — PolitiTweet.org

@MerkinMuffley5 @CaytonicCox @cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs not black commentators who typically talk like that, it's the Tema Okuns and Robin DiAngelos of the world. But again, in this case that was an erroneous assumption on my part, to my regret. — PolitiTweet.org

@MerkinMuffley5 @CaytonicCox @cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs I was condemning the Tweet without realizing the Tweeter was putting the words into someone else's mouth, so no, I wasn't condemning a made up other, let alone "unnamed black people." I took it, erroneously, to be a very white progressive sort of statement. In my experience it's — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs To have overlap on a wrongheaded tendency doesn't mean you are equally damaging or dangerous or abhorrent, but it does mean I don't care which side you're on, I'm going to criticize that thing — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs To be clear, I have friends who veer to close to left racial essentialism for my taste, whereas I wouldn't let a white supremacist in my house. Nonetheless there is something to this satirical video https://t.co/KVe3hGF7DG — PolitiTweet.org

@cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs I haven't said and don't believe they are "the same." I do believe there are overlaps between them that the left ought to find very uncomfortable. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

@CaytonicCox @cobra0483 @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs Perhaps unlike you my views about what is wrong don't change according to who is saying it. Someone on the right saying something wrong is just as wrong as someone on the left saying it. — PolitiTweet.org

@VinodSreeharsha @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs Just to clarify, I wasn't criticizing the video, which looked awesome, actually, I was criticizing the words of the person who embedded it. What I was wrong about was his priors. I agree with you RE care with video. — PolitiTweet.org

@VinodSreeharsha @rasmansa @JeffreyASachs I don't know how many times I can acknowledge I misjudged the context of the initial Tweet or repeat that I quickly added the context when others brought it to my attention. I am glad that they did and always value my priors being challenged. — PolitiTweet.org
