If people don't like you, whether justly or unjustly, then they don't like you. Try persuading people who have a choice to work with people they dislike.
The only way to stop this is enforcement with teeth.
- kradeelav 6y agoOn a practical basis, I would agree as somebody that fits a number of protected categories, and have had to work around this. Ethically, this is why we have organizations like the ACLU, ADA, and many, many others to be the enforcement with teeth. It's an uphill battle. I would disagree in the sense that pushing back against censorship - particularly of minorities - has many battlegrounds, not just enforcement with teeth. Greater social awareness/acceptance, education (history of blacklisting of sexual minorities for example), grassroots activism of simply supporting authors at risk of being deplatformed ... no sense in ignoring a tool that's available.
