i am against doing things for the reputation of any one movement (i think it’s talking about this that is coming across as vaguely threatening?) and pro doing them because they’re the right thing to do
I feel like a fairly high order bit here in how trusted people are/ how comfortable people are coming forward with this stuff is “word of mouth”—my sense was that Julia Wise & co had very much cultivated a reputation here, but clearly not with everyone (ed: I think a long private conversation where you try to settle your differences seems considerably more likely to be productive than continuing a big fight and being subjected to a lot of scrutiny in a public forum like this, if you have not already had one)

Happy to publicly support—thanks for the valuable work that you do!
Yeah, we can in that way, agree 100%. I just meant “I can’t do it in my head for the purpose of this comment”. Otherwise, completely agree.
