I've rarely agreed with Matt Yglesias, but I genuinely feel bad for him now. Unable to discard him outright for a rather vanilla statement on free speech, Vox appears to have muzzled him & dropped him into thought-leader purgatory, while Ezra Klein subtweets him like a psychopath

Ezra KleinVerified account @ezrakleinThe idea that I would try to get Matt, literally my co-founder and oldest friend in journalism, fired over this letter is risible. I've asked Matt, and others at Vox, to not subtweet colleagues. My mistake here is this read like a subtweet of him, when it honestly wasn't. https://twitter.com/Yascha_Mounk/status/1280939232366919682 …1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes

Smart move, but then Ezra's problem has never been a lack of cunning.
