Ah, Jon Kay finally comments. He brought his wordlist. 
Yay, Jon! We had to wait a whole day for your cheap feminism. Here it is!
I’m confused tho. Previous tweet said guilt by association was so not okay. If we can’t discuss association then we must discuss the person’s work, right? But oh no! That is also not allowed.

Jon Kay can’t go very deep into Minkewitz’s actual discussion of Claire Lehmann’s work. Better to call it a day with a quick smear of “high school jealousy,” and back to “GUILT-BY-ASSOCIATION tactics!” we are. Yippie!
“Clearinghouse for long-form Twitter gossip”—thought for a moment there Jon was trying to defend #Quillette on the claims made against it in Minkewitz’s piece! It was but a dream.
Oh, wait, don’t be so dreamily impatient, Katja, here it comes . . .
. . . wait . . . wait . . .
(Should I have said “the Katja”? That 15 min fame tweet was my favourite exchange with Jon by far.)

Interlude: I apologize for misspelling Donna Minkowitz's name in these previous tweets. Don't have the time to correct as I will have to get children ready for school now. Coming back later.
Let’s finish this.
Recap: in previous tweets, Jon guilt-by-associated himself with bold/assertive woman Claire Lehmann, leftists who write for #Quillette, and talented liberals writing serious essays.

So we’re clear, in his fourth tweet Jon says for the third time that Donna Minkowitz SHALL NOT associate—repeat: SHALL NOT associate—#Quillette with its writers. That’s just conspiracy, you know. The most conspiratorial conspiracy, veering toward secret illuminati stuff.
That out of the way we can get to the allegation of #Quillette supporting debunked race science.
You see, Jon can sniff out haters. Esp Nazis. He just knows their scent. Once they run actual concentration camps and invade other countries, that is.

Until then, however, he tells us all to be ashamed if we notice white supremacy in forms other than concentration camp design, foreign invasion, and subsequent exile in a Nazi-friendly country.
