      like a lot of middle class liberal commentators she took a sharp Islamophobic turn in 2001; the hard right racism she expresses today is a logical outgrowth of that initial shift.https://twitter.com/Dorianlynskey/status/1275775050008887302 …

      I find it increasingly hard to believe my memory when it tells me that Allison Pearson used to be the nice one on the 90s Late Review. It's not like ex-communists swinging hard to the right, which has a certain logic. It's like a completely different person.

      Was this like a 9/11 thing? I’m not old enough to remember any of these people ever not being racist.

      yeah. an awful lot of nice people started expressing some distinctly not-nice opinions about Muslims around then. some pulled back once it became clear where this was going (eg Toynbee), others doubled down.

      Willing to bet it jumped from “just asking questions!” to being flat out racist. Remember a lot of my school friends getting abuse/attacked then, and people arguing it wasn’t racist, it was “scepticism about Islam.” Then why have you beaten up a Hindu then. Because you’re racist.

          Slightly tangential but still relevant was the fact Rod Liddle was a Guardian columnist in this period.

          a lot of it was filtered through free speech arguments – we must be allowed to criticise religion! – it was around this time that you saw liberal-minded secular humanism mutating into and getting eclipsed by New Atheism.

          Oh god yeah, that was something I first noticed in Guardian comments. Non-vegetarians who were *so upset* about poor animals in Halal slaughterhouses, but didn’t have a wordto say about Kosher, while eating meat daily. Sure you’re just an animal rights activist, Jan.
