Back in October of 2024 I made the decision to leave X behind. Every time I hear about shit like this it affirms the decision I made was the correct decision. If this isn't a wake up call to people, then God help them.

that human element elevates the work

Imagine if just by refusing to comment, you could stop any story from running. You would literally never find out anything unflattering about anybody. It amounts to asking people for their blessing to publish your reporting about them.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
