Any cancellation of someone for holding non-left views reported on by Scott Aaronson, Scott Alexander, or the New York Times is enough to trigger positive resolution. Jan 18, 6:11pm: Losing a job or an honorary title or having to step down, like Damore or Tim Hunt or Stallman. There do need to be some actual professional consequence. It also needs to be over political views of some form or jokes, any sort of *speech* offending left-wing / "woke" sensibilities is enough to trigger positive resolution (Stallman on age of consent, Tim Hunt's jokes, Damore's memo). Boghossian wouldn't trigger because he wasn't notable enough for NYT or the Scotts. Jan 18, 6:11pm: One of the Scotts need to write about it. It either goes on ACX or Shtetl Optimized and it has to be a "woke" cancellation. The title says a la Damore or Hunt. May 20, 2:56pm: Still no positive resolution, because Scott has not written about Joshua T Katz and Sabatini. Likely he will mention at least one in the next blog post. So I'll go up.
