I am glad you are interacting here and giving your honest opinions, thanks for that, I found some of your comments helpful, even though I don’t agree or resonate with some of them.
However, note that I find this interpretation as a pretty uncharitable reading.
I see a big distinction between “I want to create a space where people can talk about different and not so controversial stuff” (I believe that “polygenic screening is not racism” is a useful and important distinction) vs. telling people “you are bad and unfun for not being fine with racist talking about racism and sexism next to you”.
I have seen this for a second time from you when replying to Austin (e.g. here), and I think it’s worse for the discussion discourse. Take what you want from it, of course.
That’s fair—you’re right to make this distinction where I failed and I’m sorry. I think I have a good point but I got heated in describing it and strayed further from charitableness than I should. I regret that.
