I mean, if they were going to fire him for that, maybe just donât hire him. Feels kind of mercurial that they were shamed into caning him so easily/âsoon.
Ofc, I can understand nonviolence being, like, an important institutional messaging northstar lol. But the vibes are kind of off when you are going to fire a recently hired podcaster bc of a cringe compilation of their show. Seriously, what the hell?
I do not think listening to that podcast made me more violent. In fact, the thought experiments and ideation like what he was touching on is, like, perfectly reasonable given the stakes he is laying out and the urgency he is advocating. Like, itâs not crazy ground to cover; he talks for hours. Whatever lol, at least I think it was understandable in context.
Part of it feels like the equivalent of having to lobby against âcivilian nuclear warheadsâ. And you say âI wish that only a small nuclear detonation would occur when an accidental detonation does happen, but the fact is thereâs likely to be a massive nuclear chain reaction.â and then getting absolutely BLASTED after someone clips you saying that you actually WISH a âsmall nuclear detonationâ would occur. What a sadist you must be!
This feels like such stupid politics. I really want John Sherman to land on his feet. I was quite excited to see him take the role. Maybe that org was just not the right fit though...
Ya, really sad to hear that!
