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

      @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.

      @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.

      @hoodedu @HeerJeet I think it's more that they're both from the generation of feminists that Pollitt broadly likes, and relates to.

      @barrydeutsch @HeerJeet Which is what I'm trying to say to Jeet; it's easy to overlook mistakes when they aren't about issues you care abt.

      @hoodedu @HeerJeet Yes, I agree. Katha can write this with relatively little pushback because there isn't yet a liberal pro-trans consensus.

      @hoodedu @HeerJeet It's not likely that people would criticize students so much for no-platforming an open racist, or an open homophobe.

      @barrydeutsch @hoodedu I oppose no-platforming open racists & open homophobes. We need to confront bigotry in open debate.

          @HeerJeet @barrydeutsch I think the open debate thing is mostly silliness. It's not like people haven't heard the arguments.
