An interesting take. Not sure if it goes here.
I had to stop when he said homophobia was coined specifically to be used for wokeness.
Also he was fine with college women getting mad at sexual harassment, but as soon as it started threatening jobs, that was too far.
Nah, this guy is just mad he can’t call people slurs.
Some points are good, some are ok, and some are bad.
This part seems bad for me specifically.
Twitter, which was arguably the hub of wokeness, was bought by Elon Musk in order to neutralize it, and he seems to have succeeded — and not, incidentally, by censoring left-wing users the way Twitter used to censor right-wing ones, but without censoring either.
An example of how this “not censoring either” is going. https://lemmy.world/post/24259702
Ideas look good on paper, but then reality drops by and shits on it.
Really good read. Not sure about his ending with having people prove that certain words cause harm though. There are no words that I can think of that cause harm.
Delay, Deny…
I think we still need those.
Because they do harm. Some are in favour of using them due to harming the people they don’t like. It’s still harm, reasonable or otherwise.
