He's one of the few people that I had to block.

I thought Jeff seemed familiar. He owns newsie.social.

@anarchosynthism oh my god!! This dude personally defederated me from his instance lmao

@anarchosynthism I made a post critical of Eugen and he got all huffy about it. I told him that I don’t make posts for assholes to read and that he should touch grass. Then he deleted his post and now I am defederated, personally.

I think you get Extra Bonus Points for that 😎

@thelaughingmuse @anarchosynthism I’m an enemy of journalists

@anarchosynthism Hahaha. Unfortunately this was during the “default instance” scandal. So too early.

@yassie_j @anarchosynthism "I told him that I don’t make posts for assholes to read and that he should touch grass." Omg that's so good.

@warrioroflatte @anarchosynthism I’ll see if I can find exactly what I said!

completely unironically asking, as a trans person, what context I'm missing that makes Ken's post transphobia apologism? I feel like I'm missing something.

does anyone have links to the relevant stuff pls

ah so THAT's what it was about.
I think I remember Ken from Metafilter back in the day & if I'm remembering the right guy, he got into lots of fights where he was clearly framing himself as the noble advocate for frank speech.
I find his legal perspective valuable so I grin & bear the nonsense [though had not prev seen the transphobia apologia, which might change things]; that said he is far too settled in his own sense of righteousness for my taste.
