Did he repeatedly appear with extreme feminists/antifa advocates to bash the excesses of the far right? If so I would genuinely like to see that. I disagree it’s irrelevant. It speaks to his judgment and what he considers important. It doesn’t automatically impugn you or the ...

... project overall. But it is relevant when assessing his involvement. What you call bad judgment, I call pandering. He didn’t go on to challenge Stefan on his lack of critical thinking/abuse of research on race. He went on to bash feminism.

OK. I'll leave you to talk about character, motivation and association of authors rather than their ideas but I am disappointed. We do bash feminism tho. Yes. That's an actual stated position to engage with that doesn't require mindreading or guilt by association.

I've been following this conversation -- don't have time to really participate right now, but I will say that while I don't doubt your motives certain associations are a real problem.

Thank you! But I will take exception to people insisting Peter is racist or sexist too because I know him & it's entirely unjustified. Nobody who knows him can think this. I don't expect anyone else to take my word for that but it is true so I will defend.

I don't think Cathy meant it that way. Molyneaux has been successful in poaching academics partly due to a snowball effect of former high profile guests - also not aware of his repugnant views - lending false credibility. Valid criticism can be co-opted to promulgate real hate.

Oh no. Cathy didn't accuse Peter of that.

No, but she is tut-tutting you for speaking to people on her unapproved list, like any good American left libertarian prig would.

No. Cathy is not that kind of person and I respect her a great deal.
