@mapkyca Which is what's happening here, because many, many people did exactly that.

@mapkyca So I'm okay with saying I won't go somewhere that gives a platform to a man who believes the Jews are conspiring to run the world.

@mapkyca And in response to that, it's perfectly reasonable to say "I'm not coming to your conference".

@mapkyca I agree with that. Here the contortions are blatantly because the organizers sympathize. It's farcical.

@mapkyca Words can be violence too. Private spaces don't need to allow all viewpoints, and actual Nazism isn't just another opinion.

@mapkyca Not sure I agree; I feel comfortable with the idea of not letting white supremacists speak at events with diverse audiences.

@mwichary That's nothing. My keyboard goes up to 11.

@funnymonkey I think both 1 and 3. It's hard, and the motivation to change isn't big enough. People say they care; have ennui in practice.

@smc90 That would be incredibly kind. East bay is the most useful for me.

@yoz I've done from time to time, but it's always started as just one tweet. Never planned. Digital equivalent of "... and another thing!"
