IDK the intellectual honesty to do the reporting is good; it would be even better backed by the intellectual honesty to admit his original takes were shitty and wrong. Seems weird to blame people who didn't have shitty wrong takes for not doing the work to back up being right. https://twitter.com/bendreyfuss/status/1298656900003889152 …

It remains true that we should not hold against an adult their crimes at 12. And I have to believe you agree with that. The question was always: what is he like now? That required reporting to know for sure. So how was that wrong?

He did those crimes at 14, not 12, and nobody was saying they were done with him forever; you were setting up a straw man so you could stake out an absolute principle to dismiss people's concerns.

The story says he was 12 when he sent the revenge porn. I wish it was a straw man. There are many people on here who say he should have dropped out for what he did at 12. Hundreds if not thousands.

But how is dropping out the same as being done with him forever https://twitter.com/davelevitan/status/1296890044867846145?s=21 …https://twitter.com/davelevitan/status/1296890044867846145 …

This is a separate question and one that probably can’t be discussed here productively. But I do object to this insistence that “we’re not calling for his jailing or execution” is a useful way to talk about this. People got a volunteer EMT from TN canned. There’s no bottom...

The volunteer EMT wasn't fired for something he did as a child, it was for something he said a few days prior, specifically saying that he would rather shoot protesters than treat them

God damn all these slippery slope arguments are just you saying you don't think anyone should ever get fired at all
