...in response to accusations that his posts against rape and sexual, gender or racial harassment—plus asking fandom conventions to have clear policies in place—are a misuse of his influence in social media; that instead he should shut up about the issues and instead put a positive spin on conventions to lure encourage more women and minorities to be targets attend and be put down or drowned out on panels participate.

Gee, guess he should stop being a mean bully ... *gag* ... where are these better to keep it nice than actually handle the issues creeps coming from?  Guess they don't feel he had any right to use his voice on social media to do fundraisers for RAINN or other organizations as a part of some of his social media posts.

Personally, Mr. Hines, you are a good man and I encourage your efforts.  The quality/attitudes of those against you speaks eloquently to that.
