From my recent guest article in @Sundial_CU.
The only way for CODA to get on the right track is for more courageous, more principled students to take the lead.
How can America develop a healthier sexual culture? Do you think Nikos is on the right track?

And CODA was *supposed to be* the organization that facilitated those debates.
College is *supposed to be* a place where students debate controversial topics.

I Founded CODA. It Has Betrayed Its Mission.
Former Sundial staff editor Clayton Smith returns to argue that the Columbia Open Discourse Alliance, which he founded, has abdicated its mission in condemning a recent Sundial essay on the “Cornell Seven.”

My friends at @Sundial_CU invited me to write a guest essay about how The Columbia Open Discourse Alliance (CODA) has fallen well short of it's founding principles. (I should know, I founded it!).

The open discourse organization I founded at @Columbia threw two of their classmates under the bus and joined a pile-on against them.
Thanks to @Sundial_CU for inviting me to share my perspective in their top-notch publication!

For many people, when they say “believe women” they mean “take everything women say on the subject of SA as gospel truth or we will crush your nuts with a brick”

I really hope to see more young men stand up for what they believe in.
It’s a mark of true masculinity to remain steadfast in one’s convictions. We must lead by example!
I have the utmost respect for @Nikos_Mohammadi for doing this with me.
"A lot of very left-leaning young women date very right-wing guys. I think its that... confidence and that conviction in their beliefs that makes a man masculine and attractive."

🎯
The Columbia Open Discourse Alliance (CODA) claims our article on the Cornell 7 case “promotes rape culture and works to silence survivors of sexual assault.”
I shared a deeply personal story about sexual trauma in that piece. I could just as easily argue that their hostile and insensitive statement contributes to an environment where women like me feel unsafe sharing their experiences.
They’re an “ally to all women” until one disagrees with the dominant narrative

This is like seeing a Saturn Ion next to a Porsche 911
You come on the pod, then you get featured in the @WSJ. It’s called the TDL bump. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Thank you @WSJ for covering what's happening at Columbia! A disappointing moment for free speech on campus.
It all feels very meta—the outcry we've seen is exactly what we warned about in our article.
