But according to you, bans have nothing to do with it. You call people authoritarian even without them calling for any bans.

And you ARE saying "stop expressing those ideas" - those ideas, in this case, being petitions to dis-invite speakers.

You're not calling for disinvitation petitions to be banned, but neither did that writer call for "manthreads" to be banned.

.@barrydeutsch No, I am in favour of engaging with or ignoring speech you dislike. She for telling others to stop doing it.
