      Of course it is true that a minority of junior staff activists hold hostage the senior executives over such decisions - the previous experiences/examples of careers being destroyed quickly and without process of appeal have made their point.https://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/1478068602213392392 …

      1 Mailer's political writings are the best part of his legacy (even, or especially, when he was wrong) & worth preserving. 2 Be worth looking at Mailer's sales compared to, say, Vonnegut, Roth & Didion. 3 Unlikely that a decision like this was made by a "junior staffer." https://twitter.com/janicemin/status/1478007804950564866 …

      Hilariously, Random House is publishing the book. Because these decisions are never made by junior staffers. Never.

      Of course the decision is not "made" by them. The Junior staff merely create an atmosphere where senior staff bow to their pressure. Like this has never happened before. What is this relating to: "Hilariously, Random House is publishing the book."

      In what world to you live in where junior employees have the ability to set the "atmosphere" of a workplace that is greater than that of bosses? This:https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/610916/beyond-order-by-jordan-b-peterson/9781039001022 …

          I live in the world were woke/post-liberal/identiterian/regressive left staff routinely defenestrate people who do not agree with their demands. As in what happened to the op ed page editor of the NYT. And the editor of the NYRB was fired over nothing:https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/sep/20/metoo-new-york-review-books-editor-ian-buruma-twitter-conviction-claim …

          Are you one of those people who will continue to deny that cancel culture or whatever we are going to call it now is a real phenomenon??

          That the Random House Canada staff did not succeed does not mean that other junior staff have not succeeded in getting books cancelled. They did with Woody Allen.

          You gave an example of book not being published due to junior staff pressure. Turns out it actually was. Just take the L.
