Thanks to @JamesCantorPhD and Amy Tishelman for a very civil and interesting discussion. Also thanks to the @MIT students, especially those who initially thought this event should not take place, but who came anyway.

Eloquent essay by @SiddhuPachipala , an MIT Civil Discourse @MITCDP fellow. "A protest that persuades presupposes ... that those people marching over there are not unlike me, that they may be owed a hearing." bostonglobe.com/2026/01/22/opi… via @BostonGlobe

Community note: the topics @MITCDP has covered are in fact diverse.
Hollis Robbins@anecdotal
The lack of viewpoint diversity on panels of viewpoint diversity should be of concern to everyone interested in viewpoint diversity. More views on science and space travel please! @dsallentess suggested that debating interesting science was the ideal but we're not there yet on campuses. Why not, I ask sincerely. Perhaps instead of staging debates on the same polarizing topics, on gender, gender fluidity, race, etc., debates should be staged about whether the US should build more dams, or raise taxes on electricity for heavy AI users, or whether we should invest in data centers in space would be more interesting. Do it now! And ignore the tired outrage put forward by @BrandonWarmke.

Tomorrow I’ll be at MIT for a conversation about reforming universities. If you’re in the Boston area, please come join us and disagree with me.

This will be a great event.
That said, there is a lot going on in this poster and none of it makes sense.
