      Conservatives really do attack academics & place them on watch lists, so it’s a shame this couldn’t be a more evenhanded article.https://twitter.com/aaup/status/969595217845374976 …

      Hey, Nick...what do you think of what happened to @BretWeinstein at #Evergreen? He's not a conservative. All he did was object to hate against white people and he was run out of the place on a rail.https://youtu.be/2cMYfxOFBBM

      Replying to @LNSmithee @CathyYoung63 @BretWeinstein

      Anyone who isn’t a far left radical, myself included, thinks his treatment was appalling. That’s almost like asking, Is water wet.

      Replying to @NickWolfinger @LNSmithee and

      That looks a LOT like No True Scotsman. From my view outside academia, I saw far more silence or Yeah He Is An X-Ist. The loudest objections I saw were "Right-Wing" media and academics.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman … E.g., responding to "Feminism is hostile to the presumption of innocence for men accused of sexual abuse" with "No real feminist opposes the presumption of innocence." But I don't see how that's what you're doing here.

      You weren't being asked what academics think about the Weinstein situation, but what *you* think about it.

      Replying to @CathyYoung63 @NickWolfinger and

      Yes, precisely. To say those on the left who think the treatment of Bret was right are radical is, in no way, a no true Scotsman. For that, you'd have to say they weren't on the left.

      They are reactionaries, not of the left.

      They are the reactionaries of the left. Just like the far-right are reactionaries of the right.

          Yes indeed. Time to reframe things. Both grievance-based movements.
