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.

You would need to identify specific far left views that would be comparably objectionable. I’m not going to be upset if someone has wonky ideas about free market systems or tax codes. DHH has said some objectively racist rhetoric on his blog and called Tommy Robinson’s recent march “heartwarming”.
