      I strongly suggest engaging with what people actually say and not any 'code' you think underlies it. "So, what you're saying is that you want to censor people?' No. We want to critique their ideas.https://twitter.com/C_C_Gill/status/1000085745460305920 …

      Yes, you're allowed to say you're wary. But wary has become code for "let's censor this person". And censorship is more likely to happen to right-leaning individuals because of the prevailing left-wing ideology across the media and universities

      I don't understand how you're an editor. You are determined to misinterpret my words, and have given me a bizarre sermon on the importance of engaging with arguments... Hmm.

      It's happening every where. We call every instance of sexism misogyny, every instance of racial insensitivity racism, or even racial hatred. If we keep this up we'll have no tools to tackle the real problems. Zero tolerance doesn't work for culture infringments

      not directly at you, no. As you guessed, I was commenting on these types of tribal shouting matches. If it was only twitter it wouldn't be so bad, but this seems to be the new way to argue.

      Well, I don't consider suggesting we *don't* read other people's words as codes for something much worse & instead engage with what they're actually saying as either a tribal shouting match or a misrepresentation of the words '"wary" has become code for "let's censor..."'

      but where would we stop? Radical has become code for extremist. Insurgent is now code for terrorist. In the new UK Internet censorship act, esoteric is already code for obscene. We'll lose all our medial words if this goes on

      I don't know how 'Where would we stop?' applies. I'm suggesting not doing this as much as possible and arguing with what people actually say rather than the least charitable interpretation of it. It boggles my mind to have to suggest this to Peterson supporters.

          perhaps I should declare, I don't know anyone in this thread. I just follow searches I find interesting?
