Our @Sundial_CU essay on the “Cornell Seven,” and the ensuing backlash at Columbia, has made it to France’s @Le_Figaro. Which I certainly did not expect when I published it… lefigaro.fr/international/un…

My friend Clayton Smith ( @_NotYourRealDad), who founded CODA two years ago and recruited me to join before he graduated (I’ve since left), returns to @Sundial_CU. Read him on how CODA — ostensibly dedicated to “open discourse” — has betrayed its mission. (Link in comments)

My friends at @Sundial_CU invited me to write a guest essay about how The Columbia Open Discourse Alliance (CODA) has fallen well short of it's founding principles. (I should know, I founded it!). sundial-cu.org/p/i-founded-c…

.@shoshanaaufzien on the backlash to me and Christina Ma’s recent essay: “The authors warned that campus discourse on the ‘Cornell Seven’ had devolved into a ‘frenzy’ that vilified dissent. Their critics then inadvertently proved their point.” sundial-cu.org/p/now-its-rea…

My friend @shoshanaaufzien disagrees with me on the “Cornell Seven.” And she’s just written a fantastic defense of @Sundial_CU for publishing my take. Sundial will not “cease organizational operations.” It will continue defending free expression. sundial-cu.org/p/now-its-rea…

ICYMI, my now campus-discourse-setting @Sundial_CU essay on why the “Cornell Seven” is really about a contradiction in liberalism as practiced: promoting libertine sexuality while infantilizing women. sundial-cu.org/p/the-cornell…

Student paper editorial boards publishing activist pieces, one crop of Columbians stymying debate and the others self-censoring, or one more woman posting, “I am Jane Doe,” will not create a more dignified sexual ethic. ✍️ Nikos Mohammadi and Christina Ma (Link below)
