I agree that this vigilance is necessary and must happen. However, it is
my personal belief that showing up at an event, and being a respectful
participant, to speak about how our dedication to those principles and how
Matusow and others work against them is precisely the way to be vigilant.
Stanco doesn't run advocacy events anymore. That's upsetting and
disheartening. But it's reality. Given that reality, we should use these
"both sides allowed" events he now does run to get our vigilance across to
as many people as we can.
If someone gives you a pulpit to spread your beliefs, use it!
