Good points. “How should we respond” is also a strange framing IMO because it unquestioningly assumes that there’s a need to coordinate as a community (on Lesswrong of all places, which isn’t even a Scott-themed reddit or the commenters on his blog). Personally I think any coordination around this sort of thing is pretty weird and people should just do what they think they should do (and maybe that includes some person writing a personal post on why they want to boycot the newspaper, in the hope to inspire some others, etc.).
