I know this will meet with vehement pushback, but I have very mixed feelings about Quillette and those who write for it. Take this essay, for example: https://quillette.com/2018/05/22/indigenous-ways-knowing-magical-thinking-spirituality-one-name/ …

I think there's a genuine spirit of "knowledge for knowledge sake, sensitivities be damned" that I believe has some value. But it REALLY bothers me that this serves, for some, as a cover for straight-up bigotry and lopsided critiques of "progressivism".

That is an interesting question. Quillette clearly is well funded. I've wondered who funds it.
