Engaging in "cancel culture" is negatively correlated with having taken an impression of a cartoon with Silly Putty.

@GeofftheJohnson @ericowensdc Ah, my answer is, if you do think public shaming campaigns are unproblematic now, and also know many of your fellow citizens disagree, and feel they are panicking about them, you might reassure them and clarify the terms of public debate with that kind of specificity — PolitiTweet.org

@hiltzikm Sure, and the suspension itself was unjust, and the incident absolutely chilled speech--multiple colleagues of his told me that they changed their curriculum after it for fear of themselves being treated in similar ways. — PolitiTweet.org

@hiltzikm Okay, if you were a business school professor teaching about language norms in China, and you said a Chinese word that sounded like but is not a racial slur, and your institution suspended you and your students wanted to get you fired, I would think that is unjust. — PolitiTweet.org

@paint771 I think that's a good example. Everyone agrees you shouldn't call someone a racial slur. Then a professor gets suspended and investigated for saying a Chinese word that *sounds like* a racial slur, and one side says *unreasonable concept creep is happening*, and I agree, it is. — PolitiTweet.org
