The article was a lot more nuanced than most people who say “PC speech is out of control”. And I think they have a good point. Pulling up tweets from ten years ago to get people fired is horrible. Ten years ago, I hated gay and trans people because of the way I was raised. I’ve changed significantly in those ten years. Hell, I had a psychotic break. Should the things that I said then be forever held against me? I clearly wasn’t in my right mind. The people that have held those things against me were all from the “far left”. That’s one data point but it’s something I’ve seen over and over. I ran a convention where I had to fire a volunteer because they said something “unacceptable” on Facebook. Defending them was not an option if the convention was going to survive. I’ve seen what happened to conventions that tried to defend people who had said similar things. It’s still ugly years later. I say this as someone who would march in the protests here if I wasn’t at sufficient risk Of dying from COVID. I’ve been in the pride parade here despite my sensitivity to heat and poor physical condition at the time.
