recently politico removed a piece by a prominent french sociologist bc he called out macron's rabid islamophobia. now the same professional media class hacks who cheered the decision to censor that are crying for jordan peterson and going all "OMG WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS ENDING"

the fact that Farhad Khosrokhavar, the author of that censored piece, was not turned into a brave Saint and Martyr for free speech by the professional media class, but someone like jordan peterson is (even though he's not actually censored), tells you all you need to know

this is just the most recent example of professional media class hacks either cheering on or entirely ignoring actual instances of flagrant censorship. but this happens constantly. see this thread where I discuss why, and detail another case of this: https://twitter.com/zei_squirrel/status/1276278799894753287
