if you're reading this in real time & wanna know what Harper's letter is really about, I encourage you to check out @/jennyboylan mentions. she signed it, so I was following to see whether she would comment or not...

...I've received multiple responses/complaints asking about my views about the
#harpersletter more generally. I've already penned two threads about it today (w/links to more detailed writings), you can access them both here:https://twitter.com/JuliaSerano/status/1280507294548144128 …Show this thread -
...and now Jesse Singal is going after
@emilyvdw for her engaging in open debate about the#harpersletter. it's almost as if he doesn't really like "open debate". or trans women. or more specifically, trans women who engage in open debate...https://twitter.com/emilyvdw/status/1280691694216687616 …

in the meantime, the Jesse-Singal-provoked hate parade in @/jennyboylan's mentions continues, here are some screen shots. it's entirely filled with ppl berating & demeaning her for apologizing. it's disgusting. is this what you meant by "open debate"

...hey, look, now far-right accounts (e.g., @/pris0nplanet) are tweeting shit about @/jennyboylan for apologizing about the
#harpersletter. gee whiz, how could have Jesse Singal even predicted that?pic.twitter.com/4hg6Jiz7tv

...so weird that there is no "leftist mob" in @/jennyboylan's mentions. just a far-right mob. perhaps this isn't a "both sides" issue after all? maybe the "open debate" trope is just a ruse to promote conservative & outright bigoted speech? just spitballing here...

Clearly what it was actually intended to do was support silencing backlash for saying and doing awful things

Almost like Singal is doing some surveillance and shaming.

Wait, so Singal is shaming Boylan for not conforming to his nonconformity?

I think I'm probably measurably happier since I blocked that sleazy weapon. This is a needed reminder that, to everyone's detriment, he continues to exist.

we mutually block each other, which is fine by me. I'm normally blissfully unaware of his doings. only sought out & posted this screen shot when someone told me he was the one responsible for the pile-on on Jenny's account that I had already described.
