      i do not understand the impulse to defend berlatsky in this matter, the fact is he’s involved himself in something that’s manifestly creepy

      It seems like you guys were in such a rush to form the perfect nice, reasonable opinion that you didn't bother learning what the opinion was supposed to be about, and now you're stuck defending NAMBLA 2 because you can't admit you were wrong

      Most of what I know about the organization is from tweets from people like Liz Bruenig & others. It seems pretty bad. But there's a difference between working for a bad organization and being a pedophile.

          Maybe you shouldn't have rushed to start publicly pontificating about something that, by your own admission, you only have a rough impression of from reading tweets

          What does the organization promote, Jeet? What’s their mission statement? Care to expound on that, Jeet?

          Distinguishing the pedophilia enablers from the pedophiles doesn’t really seem like a very important part of the story to me. But whatever.

          Jeet, would you in your wildest dreams work even part-part-time for an organization advocating for Mormon-style polygyny? Or for Quiverfull?

          Maybe these guys see the choice of which media job they have as its own Maslow Hierachy Of Needs. They can only get to that self-actualization part if they live comfortably enough. Otherwise, you've got to consider NAMBLA2.
