I've DMed a few of mine with some successful results

For Jade's point, not really the only way to do that. You can use a Twitter list without following them.

I don't judge anybody for following anybody. It's not about judgement. It's about what following them means. If it's a fellow scientist I can see innocent/work reasons for following. If it's somebody who genuinely wants to harm us, I struggle.

When I say "judge", I mean... Judging somebody for following somebody == thinking they agree with that person 100%. I do not do that at all.

This one is hard. On the assumption that some of my opinions are wrong, I have to seek out honest disagreements. But I can't judge "honesty" in any reliable way. I can, of course, do it in certain cases!

I get you. And super appreciate you engaging here BTW. Same goes for all others in this thread.

Ehe. Not much to appreciate in my case: I'm just trying to learn via hive mind. Never sure when/why it might come across as epistemic exploitation. Might link to the issue of honesty, in the reverse direction...

I just think the harm done to our community by pushing out people like Danielle is important to discuss. So I am glad you all find it also important to think about.
