@JFGariepy 1/ JF, you& #39;ve always had my support and I like you personally. As to how you have characterized me personally, that& #39;s regrettable. Generally when someone indicates someone& #39;s thinking is incorrect, they are able to point to examples (and ideally allow refutation). That
2/ is not the case here. As to the bigger issue of "in fighting" or antagonism versus @Henrik_Palmgren and Red Ice you are simply ignorant of the situation. I actually reached out to Red Ice to deescalate the situation. All of this is easily discovered through the now infamous
3/ twitter exchange. Rather I have been working actively to deescalate these inane conflicts behind the scenes, so far too little avail. Though perhaps there will be progress soon. My characterization of them as BEHAVING J-ish referred to their persistence on mischaracterizing
4/ actual positions combined with an unwillingness to resolve these misconceptions civilly on a broadcast(or a DM). This, as you know, is precisely how the mainstream media behaves. I am happy to go on your stream at any point to clear up these misconceptions. Likewise if you
5/ have any specific questions as to my ideas, I am happy to clarify them. Your characterization of them, of course, is insulting. It& #39;s possible some of the ideas I deal with are not well understood by you because you are less familiar with mythology, arts, my work etc. You
6/ seemed to admit as much when we did our first stream together. There is no shame in that. I admit to not being an expert in your field nor in your particular line of thinking. But again, I am available to clear up any misconceptions you may have to my thinking which you
7/ have effectively slandered with no reference to specific ideas. I am difficult to offend though so bear no hard feelings. I any case the thread of the exchange in question is available for your analysis. I can only assume you had not viewed it before your broadcast. In fact on
8/ May 10th I DMed you asking you to host a civil discussion between feuding factions which included @AshaLogos , WOTW, Keith Woods, RS and others. The goal, explicitly, was not for a blood sport but rather to clarify actual positions on both sides. My effort was to take the
9/ feud off Twitter where it had become toxic. Your response to me at the time was: "Not super interested in & #39;muh infighting& #39; and & #39;muh movement& #39; arguments." I& #39;ll accept that maybe you thought the stream would be useless. But to characterize me as leading the "in fighting"...
10/ this is false. I am happy to make amends with @Henrik_Palmgren at any time but he is dead set against this as is clear from that twitter thread. So unfortunately you are dealing in falsehoods. I assume they are based on a simple misunderstanding of the situation. This was the
11/ tweet you referenced in particular. My criticism of @Henrik_Palmgren was related to his behavior in this instance and his insistence on mischaracterizing views on our side while not allowing a civil stream on the matter. https://twitter.com/MarkBrahmin/status/1264376334199001090">https://twitter.com/MarkBrahm...

13/ Below is the beginning of the exchange. @Henrik_Palmgren Shared a DM I sent him hoping to deescalate the situation. I& #39;ve forgiven him for this. I don& #39;t give a shit. I think him and his wife gone through hell. I was angered by his 45 minute attack on RS and NPI tho.
14/ You should have mentioned that to provide context for your viewers. Beginning of exchange: https://twitter.com/MarkBrahmin/status/1264355320836640768">https://twitter.com/MarkBrahm...
