Thomas Chatterton Williams is impossible to disagree with. That's not a good thing.
Thomas Chatterton Williams and I disagree on practically everything — race, progressive politics, social media, so-called cancel culture, how much one person should be allowed to quote Camus — and even when I ostensibly agree with him (such as our shared belief in not censoring objectionable ideas from past art), I find that his ideas are often presented without rigor, and his prose often tedious, to the point that I want to disagree with him anyway.
