Second name on the list is Geoffrey Knauth - @gknauth - who retweeted a hideous Bret Stephens NYT editorial about how all this 'liberalism' is eroding 'excellence' https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/02/opinion/university-campus-diveristy-inclusion-free-speech.html …
Not holding my breath for either of these gents.

You make some good points about RMS but calling Lessig a "child rape apologist" is extremely offensive. He was abused and raped as a child & has never been an apologist.

Thank you for sharing that, I hadn't read it. It supports my point, that he's not in any way a "child rapist apologist."

It does not. That piece was deeply misogynistic and absolutely serves as child rape apologia. With Lessig the arguments are more sophisticated and complex. But the apologia is still right there. Please listen to us women.

I'm listening but not understanding. He explicitly stated how terrible he felt when it unraveled & how he should have originally pushed back. His arguments about anon donations are interesting & debatable but I don't see how they support rapists.

Explaining this to you is not my responsibility. Just note that women leaders in the community are telling you he is writing apologia and do the work yourself. Don't put your lack of understanding on our shoulders.

Mandy, I hear you. I have read what MIT grad Selam G wrote. Her story moved me. I know what is like to feel so angry you can’t work, it’s horrible. She should not have to feel as she does. Almost all of what she wrote I agree with.

I think there's a lot of pain in our shared community today. Pain that has been caused by men who hurt women and enable other men to hurt women. The underlying structure of the patriarchy in open communities is visible right now. Let's use that opportunity to dismantle it.

I suspect there's a further reckoning needed where we learn the structure of the underlying racism and colonialism of our communities and then hopefully dismantle that too.
