I will never use, teach with, cite, or engage in any way with your work ever again.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Pronouns in bio. No further research on this guy needed. From that, I can conclude that historians not working with this guy would be a net positive to the world and therefore they should sign any of "those letters" they like.

The only agreeable communists are the ones that agree to jump out of the helicopter.

A communist....who is pro blacklisting people.

Someone skipped history class a few too many times...

You should know better, you have all the training, and context, to know.

Yes. You should know better, David. Anyone who spends even a few minutes studying history clearly sees any time you start imposing censorship and speech codes it ends in despair and misery for everyone.

You would also clearly see that Socialism is never Utopian, and even if your revolution succeeds academics are either turned into propogandists if they're good little boys or put up against the wall and shot (or, often, both). But clearly you're too dense for that.

Utopian, vagrant, poverty? Such interests. Guy's got a weasel face, rejecting them before they reject him, more than they already have. It's only a power move (albeit an evil one) if you matter and by the looks of this guy, he doesn't.

Tried to see if there was another letter by seeing what the idiot was raving about in his other comments, but could only find whining about the Harper's letter.
