Progressive people have the same complaints about twitter for failing to moderate the swarms of white supremacists that are out harassing Jews and people of color.
Last celeb to make a stink about moderation was Milo Yianniopoulos, who got booted for orchestrating a long campaign of harassment against the black woman from Ghostbusters because she was the black woman in Ghostbusters.
Somebody pointed to Scott Adams as an example of their left-wing moderation.
I used to be a fan of Scott Adams, and following him you can see him going further off the deep end, posting some sadly misogynistic stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if he crossed the line in some less-public ways.
We're talking about a middle-aged man who posts pictures of his abs to try to win arguments. He's losing it.
- skylan_q 10y agoorchestrating a long campaign of harassment It's actually possible for independent people to all hate the new Ghostbusters film. It doesn't require orchestration to have taste.
- Pxtl 10y agoIt's also possible to hate a movie and not harass the people who acted in it.
- skylan_q 10y agoThe attack was retaliation. The original attack was "you're a sexist if you don't like and watch our movie" Guilting people and sending out messaging like this is an attack on people's notion of self-determination and self-worth.
