@juanfernandes Which concerns? I just had a chat to Sam about it. Haven’t seen any on Twitter. Perhaps from folks I blocked a while ago?

@aral There's a lot more. Basically the whole "creepy uncle" thing and the association with child abuse -
@juanfernandes It’s not about child abuse — the creepy uncle in this case is creepy because he wants to know everything about you. -
@aral I got that, but there are a lot of people that haven't - end result is that the campaign is now being associated with it -
@juanfernandes Remember that there are some folks — a very small but vocal majority — who will twist anything we do. They simply hate us. -
@aral@juanfernandes Was sad to see people saying that. While the creepy uncle bit is silly, that reaction just seems to be hating a bit

@aral@juanfernandes it's being suggested that you're "creepy uncle in the middle" is a reference to child abuse and thus trivialising it -
@richaskew It’s not. That’s being suggested by people who have a vested interest in interpreting that way. They’d twist…+@juanfernandes
