I did like this bit especially

A certain type of activist has a level of paranoid hypersensitivity that almost literally warps their hearing. You can say ,“I disagree with you for the following reasons.” But all they actually hear is “Hate hate hate!” So instead of putting a counter-argument (which I would be interested to hear), they resort to censorship. All too often it goes further, and they boil over in virulent abuse: “Transphobe! TERF!”

Some activists these days appear to believe that insulting and belittling other people is somehow progressive activism.

He was front page on the Evening Standard today.

However, ten years ago people used to read the ES on the way home from work. Now people just look at their phones. I don't think I saw anyone else reading it on the commute.

Shame, as it was a good article.
