He really needs examples provided. Which group do you think is on his mind?
- Palestine and how many academics have been fired or silenced for supporting them l? Nathan J Robinson was let go form The Guardian for a joke about Palestinian treatment.
- The score of labor organizers fired in the tech and food service industry for expressing their right to organize?
- Tech workers getting fired for what could be claimed to be sexism/sexual harassment?
- People fired because they are extremely right wing?
People who talk about the limiting of free speech almost never care about the first two but they sure get high and mighty when their friends get cancelled for making off color jokes.
- c1b 5y agoSo you just gave three examples off the top of your head but you need to make sure he picked the right one..?
- marricks 5y agoSorry, I thought it’d be obvious to everyone reading he clearly isn’t talking about: - labor organizers getting fired - Palestine - Folks getting sexually harassed
- woodruffw 5y agoI believe the author was pointing out that pg is selective in his application of "heresy."
- stale2002 5y agoSo you agree that the issue of heresy is a problem, but instead of addressing the actual issue, you are more interested in knowing which team PG is in, in the ongoing pattern of treating politics like team sports.
- woodruffw 5y agoI am first and foremost interested in consistency, a property that is consistently in short supply with pg.
