Fair to say that the zeitgeist on the left broadly is scolding, censorship and dogma. It's illiberal and damaging to society precisely because it becomes the grounds of debate for opponents - sidelining discussion about the actual issues. We all lose when videos of protesters toppling abolitionist statues are all over.

I think this is portentous. I think this is a canary that many will regret not noticing its asphyxiation. SSC, by most any measure, is a dyed in the wool progressive. The whole thing feels like a purge that is winding up and spiraling off into the next round eliminating undesirables. I wouldn't be surprised if the next victim is the triggerman/journalist who is responsible for this instance.
