So much confusion over this. Censorship is trying to ban speech. It's not discussing how best to communicate & find common ground. https://twitter.com/GodDoesnt/status/911640626059456512 …

I'm close to being a free speech absolutist. I still spend a hell of a lot of time advocating certain ways of talking about things. egpic.twitter.com/FNsYJ1S4e8

James' argument was don't say "white male" cause saying it has brought us to the brink of nuclear war. Worst kind of correlation.
-
It's contributed to bringing you Trump & the rise of white identity politics so, yeah, I'd suggest rethinking leftist identity politics.
-
Nope. Data doesn't back that up. Trump had less votes than Romney. Still more registered Dems that Repubs. It's a bald assertion
-
Not sure how that helps. Trump got in despite being incredibly unpopular. What is undermining credibility of left? What are voters saying?
-
Why did Trump appeal at all? Plenty of analyses on his 'politically incorrect' persona. Much evidence of people wanting to punish liberals.
-
If you think identity politics & a failure to discuss Islamism is not undermining the left, I don't know what to say to you.
-
There really is a culture war going on & the left really is likely to lose it if it doesn't become more liberal & consistent again.

I know that particular 'most' is true, but dammit if it doesn't seem less & less so among the voices I know & see on the Left.
