Yikes what this guy is basically admitting to is using astroturfed cancel culture tactics to make power plays in American politics.
- jrflowers 3y agoHe’s very popular and the Harvard stuff is just the latest. He’s openly on Twitter chronicled his project of getting people to lump every bit of political correctness that they find irritating under the umbrella of “critical race theory”, and then once he succeeded at that pivoted to doing the same thing for DEI. Funnily enough, as an aside, I can’t imagine an easier place to propagate his sort of nonsense than a large, highly visible discussion forum that codifies assuming good faith into the rules and makes it explicitly against the rules to point out astroturfing, even if it’s obvious. Any platform that prides itself on an outdated idea of neutrality is easily weaponized by these bad actors.
