.@KimCrayton1 and friends... would you be willing to have an open call and talk? I'm happy to record and post it with no edits. I can probably also get @simpleprogrammr to come. All I ask is that everyone be civil during the discussion.

You know what? Nevermind. If any of you want to have an actual civil conversation, my DM's are open and I'll schedule the call. For the rest of you, I'm sorry I even offered to help or to have the conversation. I'll check in on Monday.

Chuck, my dude. It's not "helping." Putting abusive people in the same room as the people they're abusing in the not the answer here. Abusive people don't deserve a platform.

It seems like you're suggesting that people should either agree, or not communicate. I think Chuck's suggestion of "let's talk and understand each other" is a very productive idea. I don't know the full situation, but in my own life communication usually help.

I'm suggesting that someone who calls people advocating for diversity "fucking SJWs" and tells women to "shut your mouth" doesn't deserve a platform to spew hate on the very people he's marginalizing.
