In each case, you don’t struggle to find great legions of table-thumping hacks loudly demanding to be allowed to speak about these issues without being crushed by the mighty machine of modern liberalism. They’re all over the broadcast and print media, bleating about their fictional victimisation.

I mean, at present, they can’t even get a light entertainer sacked for saying he wants to see innocent citizens shot dead in front of their families. A terrifying New-Age Gestapo, this is not.
I know this is irrelevant, but I skimmed the article looking for context and couldn’t work out which light entertainer they were referring to—do you happen to know?
