Opinions don’t harm, actions do.
Opinions spread among people, and influence people's actions. Like that part where he says women engineers ended up on magazine covers because they're women. Words also directly do harm. Like using "tranny", which isn't just offensive but *hurtful* towards trans people.

But he is 100% right! They are on the covers because they are women because the journalists want to promote women in STEM because there are very few. Is it forbidden now to tell the truth because someone’s feelings are hurt? That’s not STEM-like. It’s about truth to gain more

Saying they got there because they're women erases their accomplishments and replaces them with their gender. Most Wired covers are men.
