The whole piece is about the need for accountability. Zero accountability from the NY Times editorial board about their role. They beat the campus speech drum for a decade when it was about right wing visitors to campus, but called for law and order when it was student/faculty protests.
From the 27th floor of the New York Times building, editors and members of the editorial board look down at 42nd Street through the thick idea-proof windows as Pamela Paul explains her insights into the dangerous overlap between 'Woke' and 'Trans'. "They *do* look like tiny ants," muses Joe Kahn.
Also, the accountability problem is a massive display of incompetence from administrators being unable to do what every college has always done — send some free pizzas, negotiate to minimize property damage and maximize safety for everyone, and wait for the end of the school year.
editorial boards of the like seem to be past the historic vindication and pathos of self-accountability. With the day an individual of our days discovers the problem it also starts to not care at all as well. It's a fun game out a safe space.
