The ideas in the blog post are good, but the title is terrible; deplatforming is a synonym for censorship, which is a weird thing for the CEO of Mozilla to advocate for. The ideas would be better received if they were presented as an altern

Based on that article, it doesn't sound like Harvard is allowing them, it sounds like they have no power to stop them, since they're protesting near Harvard.

What do you mean "Harvard allows the Westboro Church"? Harvard has no power over the church.

If someone at Harvard was publicly advocating for killing black people, I have no doubt that they would be immediately expelled. So freedom of speech doesn't apply here.

I must be missing something here; if I understand this right, the woman set her dad's house on fire in 2013, the police ignore her for 10 years, and then suddenly they decide to investigate her? Are New Zealand police that backed up th

It looks like the people the author complains about are pretty intolerant, and they promote hate speech by calling the people they disagree with Nazis. So following the paradox of tolerance, they are the ones who should be banned, right?

I don't think we'll ever find out. There's no incentive for the Chinese government to investigate this issue, and plenty of incentives to keep it hidden.

It's also a more convenient theory for the Chinese government. Its much less embarrassing to say "The virus came from rednecks eating weird things" than it is to say "The virus came from a government funded lab".

Sanderson's villains do have their own shades of grey, even if it isn't quite as emphasized as in GRRM's books. The villain of the first Mistborn book was genuinely trying to keep the world safe; he was just terrible at it, a
