I don't like this new way of arguing a point where you use more severe language to try to make your point. Give me the quote where Bill Ackman says, I support genocide of the Palestinians. It is just as fair to say Ted fellows leave because of their support of terrorism.


I guess the event had the unintended benefit of self-removing members who stand against free speech and independent thought.


They doesn't seems against free speech but how Ted choose to use their free speech.


Agreed.

There is a lot Ackman can be criticized on but calling him a genocide supporter is hyperbole. I don’t believe it is helping the message of the folks who are saying it.

To offer one criticism of Ackman myself, he has called the criticism of Israel antisemitism (according to the article) which is also hyperbole. I don’t think the answer to that is more hyperbole though.
