It's just not true. I went to the loo and then left. I have no idea why Home is trying to make something of nothing. There was one exit and I had to walk past him to get out. I assure you I muttered nothing. This is very strange.

Yeah I don't want it to get personal. I've written about sobering up and Daniel's help elsewhere, and I'm not interested in old wound stuff, just discussing ideas.

Luka - I'm totally up for this. I think it's a good idea. A lot of me suspects or even knows that I'm being punished for not agreeing with current line on sex/gender. Mark's vampire castle essay remains relevant. I am out for the day but maybe we could start a new thread on what we think/what we...

None of my positions have changed. I am a leftist, a feminist (though I do not agree with much contemporary feminism) and an anti-authoritarian. Many people haven't 'changed their minds' about me, but it's ok if you have. I don't care about 'the art world', I don't any more care about academia...

I'm not going to go into detail here, but it's a lot more sinister than you might imagine. And it's not just about The Wire, though I agree they behaved with scarcely-believable cowardice and stupidity. Daniel has had plenty of jobs. I can meet up with you for a coffee and tell you about various...

Believe it or not, it's about the truth. Why lie about someone you disagree with if your arguments are in order? I said publicly I have nothing to lose: it doesn't mean I won't stick up for people - many people and institutions - who are accused of things they haven't done. Have a look at the...

Lots of people are. At this point, I have more respect for people I disagree with but are open to dialogue than I do for people I might agree with on some issues but who think that losing people jobs and lying about them are excellent and morally good political strategies.

Lol at 'consort'. It was me and Daniel. I asked Home if he'd support it and he said no, he himself had been called a fascist for a decade and wouldn't sue the person. Fair enough. For the millionth time, though, the point is that people are lying, and that many leftists (including me) are being...

I missed this email...sadly

You're just avoiding the point. Lying about people under the guise of 'left-wing' political activism *is* the dominant form of cultural capital. People make whole careers these days 'cancelling' artists and works they claim not to approve of. If I started lying about you, you would ask me to stop.

It's not my art, but he's free to do that, yeah. He discusses it in the talk which is on youtube. Spike magazine hosted it.

Hmm. There both feels like a lot to say and also not much. I understand Luka's worry about the personal/historical. I don't want to go down that path either, though there is a lot that could be said. Dominic's tone I just can't stand tbh. It's always this priestly, judgemental, patronising crap...

It was nice. Just a very few people, mainly women. I read a little statement and we had a little talk about talking and no-platforming. Then I went home. I've decided to get offline for a bit, just be outside and think and all that, but I really liked your idea luka. I think maybe in a few weeks...

I'm up for that luka - positive and beautiful and cosmic and whatnot. I'll maybe put together an opener after the meeting in park tomorrow when, whatever happens, which I'm sure will be nothing!, I want to move on, and even if people still keep trying to get me sacked or no-platformed or...

I have zero moral high ground. I don't claim to be a good person or to have never done anything wrong. I don't even think I'm right about half the things I say. I'm just fucking sad about everything and wanted to sit in the park with people. I'm just sick of the internet and this person trying...

I have offered to pay for the train ticket of whoever wrote the Open Letter if they are not in London. I also don't actually expect whoever wrote it to actually turn up, but that's part of the point - what kind of world do we live in if people can post stuff online anonymously and try to wreck...

I don't know how else to draw attention to the cowardly nature of the anonymity. People have suggested various people who might have written the letter, but I'm just utterly sick of people using my name constantly while not revealing theirs, when they are the ones attacking me, losing me work...

I'm back. I posted the public debate thing in order to point out that the people losing me work are doing so anonymously and that they should have the courage to admit who they are. But now I think we should just go ahead and have a public discussion with whoever turns up. I'm not very committed...

I have three capes, two black, one Eyes Wide Shut red, and a voodoo kimono. I liked your sun king robes (obviously lol)! Yeah, I'm going to watch a film or something I think.

I'm quite impressed that it's been days now and people (not here) are still calling me an Nazi. Quite tempted to start a political party, frankly, if this is the attention generated by going on a video and talking about going outside with a man who stood outside an art gallery and another man...
