Nice way to "slut-shame" him for being a cyclist. Just because he wears bike shorts, his eyes are still up there.
Christ, barely code. May as well have said 'some dude that sounds a bit like Brykel Burma'.
If only they stuck in "I could tell from his bike shorts that he was Jewish".

Now now. I think we all agreed that a certain poster's contributions are so insightful and important that we shouldn't tarnish them with a response.

Just leave them there in all their glory, as a distant summit whose rarified air we should all aspire to breathe.

I expect the bulk of it.
Dick Strawkins wrote:Most of the donations seem to be anonymous and in her situation, where she may be trying to present an image of unlimited support from the SJW community, it may have been in her advantage to 'boost' the figure herself - after all, Radford wouldn't know if it's her or others putting money into the fund.
True. But indigogo gets 4% of the cut & credit cards get 3% of the cut for a total of 7%. I think that it is unlikely she put any money beyond perhaps some initial seed money. But given how quickly it funded, I don't think it would have crossed her mind that she would need to put in some funds to show some activity (kind of like a bar tender putting a few initial bucks in the tip jar).

People are hyped up along with the mantra "believe the victim" that is sold.

Ben Radford gets the worst end of this stick. The only ones that come closest to his side, are the ones that think there is insufficient information to make a determination either way. And those people aren't exactly hyped up enough to empty out their wallets and chip in at Karen's suggested $100 level.

http://www.rockethub.com/projects/41435 ... legal-fund

If it was really a "us vs. them" "men vs women" scenario Ben could take advantage of people's blind faith.
Dick Strawkins wrote:The increase in her fund does seem to have slowed down enormously over the past few days, even though she is still asking for more money.
Lawsuits are expensive. I can't blame her for making a smart move.

As someone else here mentioned many a page ago, if Radford happens to win a settlement, all that extra cash may well end up in his bank account. That would be a rather bitter pill for FtB to swallow. As a point of strategy, it may be foolish of them to fund her for more than she really needs. But hey, let them give. The more the merrier.
Kidding?

I'm well and truly on the side of the good guys, but even I can recognise this is our July 1, 1916.

Radford well and truly lost the PR campaign (which is what this is all about) when he self revealed as either a fool or a failed Machiavelli (via retraction-gate).

He was then one-two'ed by Karen getting what can easily be spun into 'massive broad based support' by the movement (esp when compared to Radford's paltry loose change campaign).

Do you really think he will now get into a second-mortgage arms race with Karen given her ability to 'attrition' him with 50k of someone else's money? With at best the prospect of only partial public rehabilitation? I'm guessing there is plenty of embarrassing mud on both sides waiting to be dragged out.

Even if he won, couldn't she simply declare bankruptcy and as a byproduct receive max pity credits? She doesn't appear to be in an asset rich environment.

Knowing this guy, I'm guessing it's not a compliment. I apparently scare the fuck out of him. He's scared of my eyes and who knows what else. One of the weirdest people I've ever seen on youtube.

Mykeru wrote:Yes, well, as I pointed out when AVfM wanted a lead on this sordid tale, to the deafening sound of crickets, the current narrative of the Radford/Stollnow affair is entirely owned by Stollnow through Skepchick and Freethought Blogs. That's the reason they got so many donations. Want to find out whether to give a buck? Google it, you get their version and only their version in readable form. I'm not saying theirs is the numerically superior narrative, I'm saying theirs is the only version out there.

I would hand it to them for so completely controlling the narrative, but in reality it's a victory through forfeiture, because theirs is the only side, at all, that has done dick.

Criticizing Radford's dog-paddling as he drowns doesn't count.
Yup. It is a sad situation. The thought crossed my mind of doing such a write up, but there would be two problems. One is that there is a hell of a lot more important things to do in my life than to drudge around for what little empty information there is on this subject. The other issue is that what what I would write up would probably boil down to a scenario where we don't have enough information to make a judgment either way. I am not about to write up a true-believerism style post, when that is one thing I am against.

But I am not enough of a history buff to be able to put that into context. Can you explain?

Ben Radford has not even left the gates for a PR campaign. He hasn't explained his side. From him it's been primarily crickets. From a legal standpoint, he is following good lawyerly advice. Karen *might* be making a mistake with her further doubling-down on indigogo for more lawyer fees. But she is receiving large amounts of cash to do battle with. Ben could try to do the same, but it may hurt his legal chances. I can't say which tactic is better for him.

He could dive in, full bore a-la-Karen. But from there it is nothing but a mud fight to the bottom for both of them. Both of their careers would be effectively finished.

A PR/information fight would only benefit us as we are just currently sitting here in the dark with nothing to go on.

Karen may have left him with no other option. She has public opinion against him. She has levied serious allegations against him which she uses to try and get him black listed from conferences. If you compare what he is going to spend now compared to all of his lost future earnings, she very well may have backed him into a corner that he has no other choice but to go balls-to-the-wall litigation style.

If I understand this:

+ Something happens or doesn't happen. This is a private issue between two people.
+ CFI investigates and not much happens. This is a private issue between two people and one or two organizations.
+ Stollznow from the Parapet of Scientific American attacks on the battlefield of public relations
+ Radford defends in public.
+ Stollznow spins that defense as an attack and raises funds threatening another attack again describing that attack as her being a victim.

Radford now appears to have no options other than to:

+ continue his defense which he may not be able to afford
+ withdraw and accept likely global PR recognition he sexually assaulted Stollznow

I don't know what happened, and I am not saying nothing happened, nor am I saying that going to court, or printing an ad is out of the question, I am just saying in the "olden" days, Radford and anyone in his position had other options too, namely "move".

And I'm not saying it would be fair or unfair for Radford to move, just asking what is it SJW want for unproven, could likely be true, no one involved can afford court, never charged, incidents, whether it is vague claims of sexual harassment of Radford or the vague uneasy conversations of Bora or anyone thus facing viral Internet shame campaigns.

I always vote for freeway expansions because society's lepers need a place to live.

He always has the option of giving up getting out of the skeptic business. He could decide to go for a career that has real money in it. Why not feminism? You don't need brains, talent or looks and still make a living at it and even if he had committed the crimes he's accused of he will be forgiven as long as he claims to be a true believer.

I know you're just funnin, but doubtful. Hell, they're still burning Vacula at the stake for crimes he didn't even commit. The SJWs only forgive if there's something in it for them. Like Vacula, Radford has nothing they want or need, and never will have anything they want or need. IMO he will be vilified forever, even if he were to magically become a true believer. If Radford doesn't win, and win big, he won't need to consider the option of getting out of the skeptic business - it'll be done for him. And he's not a big enough name to have the luxury of ignoring their witch hunt nonsense, like say Dawkins.

Question:
Does Karen herself have an out in this situation?

Obviously publishing an admitted statement that Radford posted on his facebook page would be acceptable to Radford. Of course that is a complete admission from her that she is a liar about pretty much all the accusations she made against Radford.

Does she have any other outs?

Yes. Saying that she didn't agree to the statement Radford prepared and published on his facebook page.
