      These 2 claims are being presented as mutually exclusive: It is getting increasingly difficult to criticise SocJus ideology & be sure of not losing your job or being targeted for public shaming by an angry mob. People can criticise SocJus ideology on mediums with huge audiences

      They are not. This problem really does exist and there is abundant evidence of it. It is not yet illegal to criticise SocJus and outlets which will do so exist. Enough people see the problem and are worried by it to make a large audience

      "Stop whining about not being safe to express your views in certain places when there are others where you can" is a crappy position to take for two main reasons.

      Firstly, chief among the places you can't express non-SocJus views safely are universities. Do I really have to explain why that's bad for all of us? Also, yes, it's great to get invited on talkshows but what if someone really wants to continue being a biologist?

      Secondly, 99.9% of the people who'd like to dissent from SocJus views won't get invited to talk on any shows. If complained of by the wrong person, they'll just get fired and then have trouble getting another job so they won't risk it.

      This is a problem that exists. Pointing out that it exists carries the potential of heavy consequences for many people. This needs addressing & the fact that it can be addressed in popular arenas which don't submit to the orthodoxy does not resolve the problem

          Please write an article. Particularly considering the state of non celebrity common academics with heterodox views
