Hate Mail 

Oh boy. A popular science piece I wrote for @ProstasiaInc is now live. Found out via the bird site. Given that site’s willingness to tolerate #hatespeech, #ViolentThreats rhetoric, and all out threats, I can’t foresee this ending well. The piece I wrote is about #sexualabuse #prevention and I stand by it.
The thesis of the piece is simple: we need to stop the performative rage and actually put our money where our mouths are. #protect #children.

@DrGTenbergen Sorry you're getting hate about it. I read through it and thought it was great.

I passed your post on to our blog editor and asked about setting up a system where we notify authors of posting dates in advance so they're not caught off guard by harassment

@elliot oh I’m not getting anything yet. I just fully expect that with the bird site’s trend toward dumpster-fire destruction that eventually someone will be pissed off about it. Because it’s easier to be a keyboard warrior than to actually do something about it, eh? And no worries, I actually was planning to contact Prostasia to ask about its posting, so thanks for taking care of that! ☺️

@DrGTenbergen Sounds like we do usually warn people a couple days in advance of posting but our blog editor just forgot. Apologies for that
