5/ where did I whine? I'm just explaining to you (and more importantly, to the audience) that what you call "self-ghettoisation" is actually a fine, even laudable, desire to have a congenial social environment, and you are bad for shaming people.https://twitter.com/paologerbaudo/status/1458033623727226882 …

6/ and now we get the conflation "if you disagree with me that everyone should conform to the One Right Social Model, then you're obviously a trumpkin". I have long supported exit and subcultures for ALL SORTS of weirdos and minorities.https://twitter.com/paologerbaudo/status/1458036949382537220 …

7/ same energy as a conservative saying in 1975 "I proudly announce at work that I'm heterosexual, and if the gays don't want to announce their sexuality in the workplace, then that has nothing to do with an unwelcome environment; they're just cowards"https://twitter.com/paologerbaudo/status/1458042037928878082 …

9/ anyway, "Thanks God I don't have mad or disturbing ideas that I'd be ashamed to share [ and therefore I have no need for a culture of tolerance ]" definitely wins the Voltaire award for the day. Truly, academics like you are an inspiration to free thinkers everywhere!

11/ If 51% of the population seizes the one chalk board and uses it to present their opinion, and bands anyone else from touching it, which is a better way to engage? (a) setting up a second chalkboard and writing contrary ideas on it? (b) fruitlessly begging the 51% for chalk?
