You and Trace should team up and sue the pants off her.

I can't speak for Trace, but given how much time that would require me to be in close proximity with these people, I'm more than happy to settle for pointing and laughing from afar.

Sorry. I love your work. I have loved this podcast for helping me see I am not an insane monster who hates everyone but a moderate individual who appreciates things like due process. I hope you know how much you have helped people like me despite the Machivallean moves of people like this. It's a scary time that reminds me of Farenheit 451... time to tell on your neighbors.

Keep up the good work. You have my gratitude and support.

Eventually, they will all be exposed for the pathological bullies they are.

In the meantime, however, great financial, social and psychological damage continues to be done to those who are targeted by these people in the name of feminist justice. It is the job of the law and its representatives to determine guilt or innocence and, if necessary, to hold people accountable and punish them, not the personality-challenged social media warriors. Public accusations based on hearsay are always vigilante justice, because the accusation is always the pronouncement of guilt and punishment, regardless of actual guilt or innocence. Innocent until proven guilty not vice versa and in case of doubt in favour of the accused. And even if guilt is proven, the punishment should be proportionate and not every misstep and offense should be punished with a lifetime of social exclusion.

Thank you for your courageous work!

Hilarious situation!

Except for all the lives it has destroyed. Not such a laugh riot for the targets.

I think they're more referring to Nancy doxing the wrong person and having a strange meltdown about it, which I admittedly also find very funny. I don't think anyone is saying that the rest of the situations is a particularly humorous .

This is legit the best way to get me interested in someone's writing. Congrats Nancy. Got yourself a new sub (I'm already eagerly reading up on the Punk Rock Therapist material)!

That's an epic fail on Nancy Hornberger's part. I can't think of a better way to generate a negative story about oneself and one's allies than to misidentify and then dox a writer for a high-profile podcast about internet drama. Maybe on some level they wanted the publicity?

Telling my parents that I'm actually a law student is the happiest they've been in years.

Nobody owes me anything but I'm happy anyone is here at all.
