We’re not saying “get rid of Gaetz now”
We’re saying “get rid of FUTURE Gaetz now”
We’re saying, ESPECIALLY if you’re a dude in an org, LISTEN TO THE WOMEN who tell you “that dude’s a creep.” DON’T defend him “because he’s fine with me.” Get rid of him!

I’m arguing that they didn’t TRY to get rid of him, because they didn’t consider the complaints against him as having merit
If we are members/officers of left/progressive/fill in your preferred term orgs and we hear or see that someone in our org is abusive, harassing, or otherwise acting counter to our values, WE HAVE TO THROW THEM OUT
No matter how much they might be “our bro”
If we want women, people of color, disabled people, anyone marginalized to believe that we are working on their side, we have to BE ON THEIR SIDE. Even, nay ESPECIALLY, when they say that our best bro is behaving badly towards them.
