Not for nothing, but if after Joi Ito’s confession to an “error in judgment” you went ahead and signed this statement of support (for fuck’s sake, was that the Peter Gabriel?), you’ve got some questionable judgment of your own. It doesn’t matter if after the New Yorker revelation that Ito is a lying sack of shit you suddenly wanted your signature struck-through (although partial credit for being willing not to have your signature simply memory-hole’d). Your judgment failed either in supporting him to begin with even after it was clear he’d knowingly maintained ties to Epstein at all, or in not being smart enough to hold your tongue until you knew whether or not another, worse, shoe was going to drop. Being on that list should be considered a red flag, regardless of what you said or did once Ronan Farrow reported just how bad it was.
