When will this faux sense of superiority end? People have a negative reaction to people being harrassed, attacked, or hated. If you jack off in front of people who are unwilling, you're going to get a big negative reaction. If you express hatred for somebody (perhaps because they jacked off in front of somebody who was unwilling, or because you hate their political ideologies, or because you feel that they unjustly hate you), you're going to get a big negative reaction. Acting like that's crazy, or irrational, or unnatural, or trying to focus everybody's attention on censorship from private platforms that occurs as a result, is all just a purposefully naive ideological attack. This article is just another example of confronting hatred with hatred, and its being written is just as inevitable as the reactions it addresses. Except that it tries to pretend it's something above that.
When Louis says “being at a school where people got shot doesn’t make you interesting”, and his audience "roar(s) with laughter" - that's not laughter. Laughter is a semi-involuntary reaction to something striking you as humorous. If all people were utterly disconnected from the politics of the situation and immune to moral offense, the range of reactions to that joke would be somewhere in the neighborhood of smirking. That audience isn't roaring with laughing - they're expressing hatred together.
