With this bad faith hot take and confusing the American author of an antifa handbook with an education professor in Hong Kong, are you really surprised @clairlemon chose to not engage in your inquiry?
To @jaredlholt & @samthielman: who uploaded the video, where was it shared, how many views did it get, and is it still up? Is Quillette mentioned? Has anyone contacted authorities? DM the link or documentation you took of video please.
For those wondering what this is about, it stems from @jaredlholt writing a skewed report on how a Quillette story is problematic but he doesn’t identify any mistakes. He left out significant crucial portions of his interview w/academic Eoin Lenihan & misrepresented him.
With respect, you should sit this one out @chick_in_kiev. thewrap.com/nyu-cancels-fo…

MN’s paper of record: “New investigative documents released by a state agency have given fresh life to lingering questions about the marital history of Rep. Ilhan Omar & whether she once married a man—possibly her own brother—to skirt immigration laws.”
startribune.com/new-documents-…
“Campaign e-mails disclosed by the campaign finance board also show a concerted effort to quash the [marriage] story.”
.@StarTribune is late to the game. As David points out, the heavy lifting work of non-corporate journalists regarding Ilhan Omar were ignored & dismissed for years. Now, they can no longer brush it aside. More shocking details about Omar here:

This story could have better honored the memories of the Scandinavian women beheaded in Morocco. Tragically, one of the women’s childhood friends was also killed in an Islamic attack in Morocco. Instead the lead of story is about how the right-wing pounced washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Interestingly, one of the reasons the Islamic State didn’t promote the beheading video is because the women weren’t modest enough even as they were being killed. They faulted the killers for not covering the women.
In April I wrote a profile on a Danish-Iranian woman who is facing charges for sharing the beheading video. She says she did it to force Danes to confront the brutality of radical Islam. For that, she’s being investigated by state & smeared as Islamophobic quillette.com/2019/04/22/den…

How many times does antifa have to show its brutality before people believe it? Last summer in Portland, a leftist brought a flag to a protest against the right. Antifa attacked him, thinking he was a “fascist.” He was beat on head & laid in pool of blood.
The network of pro-antifa journalists have sanitized & white-washed the extremist group to some success. Come to Portland to witness for yourself the indiscriminate brutality of the street movement. Even the local media can’t ignore their extremism: oregonlive.com/portland/2018/…
And who can forget when antifa & a local BLM group physically attacked an elderly man in downtown Portland & then doxed him online? They then attacked drivers on the street, calling them racial slurs. Police watched & did nothing. I wrote about it for WSJ: wsj.com/amp/articles/a…

"The Columbia Journalism Review allowed a liberal activist to set a new standard for transgender reporting by publishing her view..."

No, the CJR published someone's opinion. That's it.

Also, Semenya isn't trans.
A fine record of Federalist reporting, tho.

The child was terminally ill and at the end of his life. The doctors fought in his best interest to prevent him from suffering via doomed-to-fail interventions sought due to ignorance and false-hope.
But do go on lecturing about standards, objectivity, facts, etc.

Though we now know who is considered respectable enough to even speak with -- those from Tucker Carlson's operation (Daily Caller) and/or The Federalist.

Noted.

You can tell the three-tier system of TRA on twitter. Tier 1 - ignorant and petulant teenager/student with blue hair, multiple identifiers including disability and mental illness status, nonsensical TL, desperate for likes, a follower.
Tier 2 - aggressive TIM/MRA/MAP, anime avatar
Bio - rainbow, lots of acronyms, “queer”, “socialist”, “antifa”, “kinks”
TL - obsessed with T3RFS”, “SW3RFS”, misogyny masquerading as SJW, organises pile-ons
Photos - beard and/or stereotypically feminine poses/clothes
Tier 3 - indoctrinator, gaslighter, someone who is well versed in reversals and bad faith arguments until he wears the target down. Often sports official title as LGBT+ something, somewhere official. Tier 3 are the most exhausting because they never genuinely engage or quit

It's true that everything is political. However, some people's lives are more vulnerable to political whims than others and they are correspondingly more conscious of how politicized their identities are, whether they are black, women, disabled, trans, or what have you.
Ultimately, the aim of progressivism-liberalism is to stop treating politics as a zero sum game where some identities win at the expense of the rest and to work toward a social order where everyone enjoys fairness, equality, safety, and a decent standard of living. Bare minimum.
The American right is explicitly about zero sum politics on behalf of straight cis white men, especially rich white men, and this has necessarily defined the progressive movement as one of other, vulnerable identities and our straight, white, and/or male allies.

A good piece by @larabazelon on what may be Kamala Harris's achilles heel with progressives: Her time as a prosecutor. But there are a few important things to add before you go all "Kamala is a cop": nytimes.com/2019/01/17/opi…
The first is that, as Bazelon writes, Harris did do a lot of good during her time as a prosecutor, pushing more progressive policies. But she was indeed also a prosecutor, and did what prosecutors do, which is not very progressive (she also went beyond that on several occasions).
The second is that identity does matter here, and Harris was undoubtedly under enormous pressure to prove herself to be "tough" -- especially as a woman, ESPECIALLY as a black woman. That doesn't excuse the worst excesses, but it does contextualize the many demands on her.

You must remember that the secret to all of this is not to be afraid of fear. When you can really allow yourself to be afraid, and you don't resist the experience of fear, you are truly beginning to master fear.
