The pod addressed the latter. Unlike the others where there are screenshots etc, It’s just hearsay. Someone said they saw it. A responsible reporter would have said they couldn’t lob that kind of accusation without evidence beyond hearsay.

The former - again, as our lovely hosts said, super inappropriate for work. But it’s like “I had this medical treatment and here’s how it affected me” it’s not porn.

Aren’t the claims that similar but not trans coded conversations were previously accepted also hearsay (if not pure extrapolation)?

Absolutely! We know zero about conversations occurring in any other social channel.

Do you agree that Rufo is far more likely to go after bad a behavior from people who are LGBT than equally bad behavior from straight people? Based on his past behavior, I think so.

Sure, but that doesn’t make the leaked information Rufo is promoting *false* and it certainly doesn’t justify the assumption that it’s equally likely that other chats had similarly damning quotes that got ignored.
