I don't follow this kind of thing so forgive my ignorance. Why was "platforming" DHH bad? Honest question.

He posted a personal blog post a few days ago decrying that London is not white enough. He has a history of very right-leaning positions.

These kind of statements frustrate me. They are kind of manufactured consent statements. I likely don't agree with DHH positions as shared here, but when did we decide platforming very left-leaning positions is good, and platforming very right-leaning ones is bad? I wouldn't even mind if the position was that platforming either is good/bad. The framing here begs the question.

Well yes, thinking people should be treated equally regardless of their sexuality or color of their skin is good, and the opposite is bad. Is that the kind of "very left leaning position" you had in mind? Or something else?

What you described is, of course, a perfectly honest account of the issue, and definitely not a strawman set up just to be knocked down.
