Better ways of thinking, feeling, and acting—around problems of meaning and meaninglessness; self and society; ethics, purpose, and value.

I don’t have a high opinion of NRx, but I think @jmrphy is probably at least partly right about the dynamics of academic no-platforming.
If you worship raw power, whining when it is used against you is pathetic.
I agree; but think analyzing why the social-justice left increasingly resorts to power simpliciter, including violence, is helpful
Sure. But no-platforming is impossible in the internet age, so the leftists who do it are just ruling some ideas to be socially unacceptable
If it was possible, wouldn't that make it worse? The reality is that providing a platform has been disintermediated; it's all endorsement.
Hmm, I hadn’t thought about it that way! *Belief revision engine makes grinding noises*
