      So....the argument here is that white people are eventually, at some point in the *distant* future going to be treated as minorities(especially black ones) for hundreds of years to the extent that her comments will bear the same weight as those associated with white supremacy?

      You have a much lower opinion of white people than I do. I think many white people are fully capable of understanding comedy & satire.

      that Sully screwed up on 1 tweet, that some of her tweets are funny, that some people have responded to her with bigotry, does not excuse a relentless multi-year barrage of anti-white tweets. I was going to give her & NYT benefit of the doubt but here:https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1025437806775226368.html …

      1. Yes, it's a problem. Let me explain why. This guy, Nick Monroe, who both you & Sullivan promote, is a wingnut who has a long history of stalking journalists, as an outgrowth of the Gamergate controversy.

      2. Monroe's modus operandi is to dig up old tweets from journalists and create dogpiles. He's done this before. Jeong, who is a tech journalist who was involved in Gamergate, has often had to deal with characters like this before. it's part of her work experience.

      3. If you want to genuinely understand why Jeong is so angry in her tweets, you have to understand the social context of Gamergate, where harassment of female journalists was the norm.

      4. But rather than making any effort to understand Jeong, your first instinct was to take evidence from Monroe, a manifestly bad faith actor who flirts with ideas that are genuinely insane (that "white genocide" is a real threat, Pizzagate).

          5. So is it clear why mainstreaming a figure like Monroe and using his approach to analyzing this controversy is a problem?

          No, what they're saying is that he took them out of context. For example, the "whites are goblins" tweet was parodying The Bell Curve.

          You should judge evidence based on the person who presented it rather than on whether it’s factual and relevant doesn’t seem like a winning argument.

          The first article actually talks about the anxiety that racist white people and white supremacists have with the rates of inmigration and the idea that paranoic fear funded idea that they are going to loose their culture or their values...

          That’s a lot of blather obviously intended as an attempt to deflect the evidence he highlights. Are you denying the tweets he screenshotted are real?

          Are you saying that tweets about how white people cook rice less often than Asians are "evidence" of something?
