The culture of the New York Times
is oppressively woke.
And identity politics certainly seems to be used as a cudgel whereby anyone who doesn’t subscribe to every aspect of it can be driven from public life guilt-free because they’re a racist/homophobe/transphobic/privileged etc, rather than any movement that actually protects the rights/safety of the populace.
A woke mob can cyber bully a trans woman who opened for Dave Chapelle to death on Twitter, but make Dave Chapelle the bad guy because he told some jokes.
That doesn’t seem particularly virtuous to me, but I could be wrong. Surely there are some people do deserve to be cyber bullied to the point of suicide.
