This is a disappointing comment from you Jon. I’ve been relying on you for thoughtful, moderate commentary during the Covid crisis. This comment is indistinguishable from the “cancel culture” you claim to be in opposition to

Jonathan,
That’s an incredibly awful tweet.— K. Walker (@TheMrsKnowItAll) October 2, 2020
Jesus Christ what a terrible comment.

Jon, I’m no particular fan of Trump either, but I want him to win. If the choice is between him and giving an utterly deranged woke left even more power, isn’t that choice clear, in the absence of any other alternative?

Are you high? Honestly, this coming from a Quillette employee, the place where heterodoxy is supposed to live, is egregious at best.
Unfollowing. I’d cancel my support of Quillette, but I don’t want to be hypocritical engage in cancel culture that we fight against.

Man, I have followed you for a long time. But now I’m out.

OMG, very disappointed in this tweet. Very unprofessional. I’ve admired your comments in the past, but this throws a whole new light on you. This was completely unnecessary. You’ve sunk into the crowded gutter with this tweet.

Are you blaming everyone who tests positive?
Is a negative test a sign of moral purity?
