      When you throw out words like "fan of eugenics" it kinda weakens your case "skaffen-amtiskaw", especially since you, yourself, are a pen name. I actually know a bit of history about what "fans of eugenics" have done and do not take kindly to the word being used lightly.

      Anybody who wants to write a piece about why he deserves de-anonymization should do so, but as someone familiar with history and current humanitarian crises, I'm so scared people have completely forgotten what eugenics actually means. It's not "I don't like this dude's views".

      I believe the right to a pen name requires a strong arguments on the merits to violate (something I made myself before for other cases). I don't need to read SLC to make that claim. It's on people who read him to make the argument on the merits.

      And "trust us, he's terrible" is no way to make the argument. Anyone who is that dangerous deserves more than a few tweets and screenshots and "trust us". Nobody will survive that process; not the deserving or the undeserving.

      Tbf, you've seen at least 3 distinct examples I've seen. You've declined to consider them because of their formatting and presentation. It's true, Twitter threads can be hard to follow. But this is an unfair characterization of the argument presented to you.

      Ok. I don't even think my opinion matters that much. If the case is what you guys say it is, I am baffled that you think a few tweets are enough for that. And I don't matter. I have a principled stance on pseudonyms & don't have to know every blog in detail (as I don't this one).

          Jesus i’ve linked to 5 different threads and there have been thousands of tweets on the topic of all the shitty things he’s written and enabled over the past few weeks. Why are you digging in Zeynep, this is stupid?
