One satisfying irony about attempts to shut down Kathleen Stock, Holly Lawford-Smith, etc., is that their work is now much more widely known that it likely would have been had they been allowed to get on with things in the normal quiet academic fashion.

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear: do you consider medium and twitter to be part of academia? Do you see them as academic journals?
I think it's entirely normal for philosophy academics to engage with the wider public as academics. I launched a philosophy magazine back in the 1990s predicated on exactly that fact.

What isn't normal is the viciousness directed towards Kathleen Stock. If you think that reaction has not increased her public profile, then you're living in cloud cuckoo land. That's my point, so spare me the sophistical bollox. Tsk!
