You lost me with this one. Tom Cottons screed, aside from being authoritarian was also full of misinformation. The NYT editor was fired not because of the twitter mob, but because he solicited the op-ed, did not read it, them defended it while lying about this.

“...he solicited the op-ed, did not read it, them defended it while lying about this.” Interesting. I had no idea it was that bad. Thanks for letting me know!

It came out in one of those closed door meetings with the staff. He owned up to not having read it before publishing. It was the end of him. So much of this anti-woke talk is defending white male mediocrity. They know if they don’t have privilege they lose their advantage.

Yup. It’s defending white male privilege disguised as support for “civility.”
