Man, this dude is incorrigible.
@dunndunndunnTL;DR Freddie says he didn’t accuse SK of lying because he doesn’t consider her a “source” regarding her own experiences— alex dunn (@dunndunndunn) July 24, 2014
That is emphatically, totally, and non-negotiably not what I said. It’s an utter lie. It’s someone representing something as true that he knows to be untrue. Please: look at the actual post I wrote. This one truly takes the cake. He’s trusting that people on Twitter are too lazy to actually bother to read my actual words.
This dude.
update: Dunn says that this tweet does not reflect his current understanding about what I was trying to say, and I believe him.
Did SK ever say her family was receiving rape threats? I don’t remember anything like that.
I didn’t either, which is why I asked for a link, at the time, so that I could read about it for myself. Which I said, at the time, and have said repeatedly since. But Alex Dunn has decided what I intended by asking a single-word question that is commonly used to request a link on the internet, and he’s sticking to that story like death.
Sarah Kendzior seems to be a pro at sowing the seeds of online confusion. Jacobinghazi was seriously one of the most confusing things I’ve ever encountered.
The whole episode was absurd on its face. Mentioning rape threats leads to more rape threats, therefore remove your reference to rape threats, meanwhile I will tweet repeatedly about the rape threats.

See, that’s all I had asked for.
I don’t care if you’re overreacting or not, Freddie. Anybody seeking a PhD in philosophy needs to be slapped down hard every now and then, just because.
Ha ha, OK, looks like this time he really was lying. Not only that, but it’s a specific type of lie: he Kendziored you, in an exchange that was originally about Kendzioring.
I mean, it’s literally just substituting some weird kind of collage for quoting, at this point.
To clarify (because all comments require clarifications): The lying involved in Kendzioring can be and probably is egregious self-deception, fortified by healthy doses of self-righteousness and victimhood. So maybe I’m also guilty of overusing the word “lying.” His words are more precisely described as a Kendzior than as a lie.
Did you compare the timestamps of that tweet and my comment on your last post?
Nope.
Well, that might have been a good way to figure out which reflected my current beliefs.
Yeah, that’s fair. I concede the point.
Thanks. Go ahead and Google-bomb me, but it’d be nice if you added a correction to the top of this post.
I’ll add a disclaimer to the bottom, if that’s fair enough.
