Talking about a fucking mess - look at how Carl Z is quoting me in the NYT [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-01-19at 6.47.19 PM.png]

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

Weifeng is clearly being told to tow the party line...I'm going to have to take my name off otherwise it will underminemy credibility. Thoughts?

Yeah, clearly a party line here - which is pretty horrible. It's the fucking blame game from the US causing this. Let's make Eddie last

And yeah - I'd take my name off it - language like this is going to raise eyebrows and I don't think you want to be partof that

Agreed, thanks. I'll use all the tact I can muster to get out of this. I might offer to edit the English but not be anauthor. What a fucking mess.

Now, look at my full quote [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-01-19 at 6.47.52 PM.png]

That is fucking bullshit - I trusted Carl to actual do a good job.

Bastard! Did you correct him??
2021-01-19 18:51 Kristian G. Andersen open

I didn't, but I'll push the whole quote - that's really disingenuous since it makes me sound as if I agree with these monkeys.
