Likewise. I think that JGC's campaign (a) shows us what it really means to be without prejudice; and (b) reveals that others in the business of civil rights persist in viewing the world through those same old goggles. That said, I think that JGC breaks from this in the essay. He says: as a geek I empathized with the idea that being different from some societal norm brings enormous pain. To me, that destroys, at least partially, the idea of a completely independent bystander fighting for truth. It brings us, at least partly, back to someone campaigning for a fellow in his own group -- it's just that the dimension JGC chose to sort by is different from the one that most of society would choose. I wish John had simply said because Alan Turing’s treatment was wrong and left it at that.
