I’ll probably expand this into a blog post. I’d like to include a bit about Michael Vassar, and am thinking about how to fit it in. I think his case is somewhere between Tsipursky/Williams/Dill and Reese’s? There’s Jax’s 2018 thread which is tricky for the purpose of (2) because it (not faulting her) mixes several categories of things (very serious, distasteful, annoyances) and brings in a lot of different people. There’s also this LW thread where in 2019 people were explaining why he needed to be kicked out, but then in 2020/2021 influential people changing their minds and regretting their decision. I’m not sure how much of this is disagreement about whether (1) was met vs not having a clear (2), though it seems like both contributed?
