It wasn't one of the 3 potential reasons we were given!

GunnerJ posted:Hot take: The fact that this event was popular enough to fill up so quickly means that the organizers of it did not have to cancel it unless they wanted to, period. Especially not because of just some people getting mad online at them. This suggests only a few possible motives for cancelling it: no

I read an interesting book recently about how the internet always was intended for counterintelligence/counterinsurgency from day 1, and woke Twitter people only further confirm this.

Are we really entertaining the idea that this one event would have been so critical to the fight for M4A that people opposed to it don't actually value M4A. lol.

It doesn't count as targeted harassment if the woman is on a podcast, then it's social justice.

GunnerJ posted:We reacted to problems and solved them as best we could I did a lot of work in and right out of college with volunteering groups and have experience with eg. campus disability advocate groups and what you describe is exactly how it's done everywhere I've ever heard of and also makes perfect sense: - Your group is alerted to a problem or oversight (there is a lack of handicap parking) - You react to address the issue (we moved meetings to places with handicap parking) The end! The problem is solved and everyone should be happy. The Extremely Online Caucus demands that every possible (or at lease their pet) issue be considered and addressed in the planning stages and remediated to their own standards of acceptability. It doesn't matter if they're just that dumb and pigheaded* or they're secret cops* trying to bleed the organization because the effect they're having is literally out of that CIA Simple Sabotage Field Manual. It's poison to this or any other grassroots organization. * I mean we both know what's actually happening is they're attention-obsessed liberals who have found an incredible target to be Extremely Woke upon. They're socialists! That's like, double liberal. Everyone will now see I Completely Get It and I'll be famous on twitter (and slide into some DMs to do some extremely suspicious sex stuff is always the end of this story).

Sheng-Ji Yang posted:doesnt make it smart or good to harass people over bullshit and get it shut down just because its not going to immediately give everyone healthcare Yes, agreed. Again, I don't think they should have cancelled this event unless they think it was a good idea to do so and if cancelling it is a response to harassment that's hosed up and a real problem. That's my stand here, this can be talked about without all the weird paranoid hyperbole going on.
