      The thing with Quillette is you can make all the jokes you want, but the actual reality is always going to be more appalling. Or: A Story in Three Acts.pic.twitter.com/PwtqB8zqkP

      You say to yourself, "Quillette is explicitly calling for a return to 19th century race science, complete with measuring skull sizes to make wild generalizations, how could it get worse than that." Oh, believe me, it can get worse than that.pic.twitter.com/UFl9f35GYl

          When I tried to ask one of Quillette's actual scientist writers to explain the supposed science, and after he ignored me for a while, he eventually said he was too busy, then said he's open to calling in to a podcast or something about ithttps://twitter.com/EPoe187/status/1136325350194126848 …

          I'm happy to discuss on a podcast. I'm afraid I have too much to attend to right now. I apologize.

          Amazing how he had plenty of time to run his mouth off just before he got called out.

          quillette would've been just another standard far-right blog site for cranks like unz review started by a former rebel media employee had more notable journalists & public intellectuals like pinker & bari weiss not promoted & endorsed the website

          @john_f_hamer The guy from Quillette on your podcast didn't mention the deeper exploration of pedophilia and phrenology. Funny that.
