a priori it definitely reads as chait confessing his ignorance. you know, with analogy definitionally being a literary device that uses comparison

Chait knows this, but he's a dishonest ideologue who's more committed to a fantasy of cancel culture than actual reality

I find this exchange to be immensely frustrating. Legitimate questions as to extent of whether cancel culture is myth/moral panic. But then conversation is hijacked if someone uses an analogy that others can use as reason to imply bigotry.

That full thread is Chait going full-on Chait. A different user said Chait "...is going all in on Moops". And that is the perfect description of what he's doing.

I feel absolutely insane reading this. Is Chait actually so blind to the realities of the discussion that he thinks there's any importance to the distinction between a comparison and an analogy here?
