I love how he says people should make dumb mistakes and then in the next sentence actively disqualified people he disagrees with from having the same privilege under the guise of “well you can’t allo hate speech.”

It’s so typical.



It's also both a curious distinction and conflation that he implies when he says ...sexual violence or racial hatred. Why not just say violence instead of sexual violence? And why is racial hatred more of a bogeyman than general hatred. And then why conflate (physical) violence with hatred (thoughts)?


I suspect, in our current climate, the author is trying to avoid being mobbed online himself.


This could be more likely than you’d think.
