Do you think women feel more or less safe around people who, given an egregious example of harassment, instead leap to the defense of the six silicon valley companies they've worked for or to criticise the NYT?
- hueving 10y agoI don't know who the strawman you are attacking is, but it's definitely not me. >given an egregious example of harassment I upvoted her story. It's a terrible case and it needs to be investigated ASAP. >instead leap to the defense of the six silicon valley companies they've worked for or to criticise the NYT The comment you are referring to is in response to the NYT turning a serious, specific issue into some larger political propaganda piece about women in all of silicon valley. Additionally, the NYT hurt her case by comparing it to one where a jury ultimately decided that the accuser was wrong.

- throwawaymaroon 10y agohaha, this is as close as we're going to get to tomlock capitulating. close it down everyone, minor irrelevant point in favor of cooler heads prevailing won, we can go on to armchair lawyering the next public media frenzy.
