      @HeerJeet Pollitt doesn't seem to value the Cardiff feminists who are wrong in asking for no-platforming though.

      @hoodedu Since the argument is they should open platform, implicit is idea their platform has value

      @hoodedu Milroy wanted to surpress Catholic voices. Does Pollitt want to surpress Cardiff group?

      @HeerJeet which is what she says we should do with Greer, right?

      @hoodedu I'm not following you here. Pollitt's argument is we SHOULDN'T surpress Greer

      @HeerJeet So it seems like certain mistakes are acceptable, others less so.

      @hoodedu If anyone were calling for Cardiff feminists to be denied a platform, then it would make sense to defend Cardiff feminists

      @hoodedu But Cardiff feminists not being denied platform, Greer is, so piece is about whether Greer should be no-platformed.

          @hoodedu If Pollitt extend her tolerance of wrong-headed-but interesting people only to Greer, you might have point but that's not so.

          @hoodedu Pollitt wrote something essentially similar about Andrea Dworkin -- i.e. a feminist far more radical than Greer.

          @HeerJeet Dworkin isn't more radical than Greer. Anyway, they're both from wig of feminism that Pollitt broadly likes.

          @hoodedu @HeerJeet My impression (could be wrong) is that Pollitt is substantively closer to liberal feminism than to Dworkin's position.

          @HeerJeet My point is just that there are mistakes and mistakes. Some Pollitt doesn't feel are impt. Some she does.

          @HeerJeet And Greer has actually tried to get trans women fired, and been reluctant to speak with them.

          @HeerJeet So if those are mistakes we shouldn't tolerate, seems like Pollitt could have mentioned them in regard to her as well.
