McNeil got cancelled by the extreme left. To read his own story about how he was abused is compelling.
Yet for some reason he seems incapable of taking as hard a look at the left and the principles underpinning it as he does in his deep dives into health and science issues.

Yet for some reason he seems incapable of taking as hard a look at the left and the principles underpinning it as he does in his deep dives into health and science issues.
You’d think a life changing event would result in a top down reassessment of the political world he associated with, but that’s clearly not the case.
He still has the same harsh leftist views - somehow he’s able to separate them without understanding how the views are interconnected.
The cheap shot about Clarence Thomas was completely unnecessary to his story, yet he just can’t help himself. It undermines his credibility in general and the credibility of his reporting.
It’s funny that you say that. I find him to be a very hard left winger. Bari is too. They are older leftists, so they aren’t as extreme, which is why they got cancelled at The NY Times. The Times, like any other organization has t9 rotate the stock, and so the younger people in the news room, like that crazy wacko Nikole Hannah-Jones are really off the wall intolerant.
I particularly like how they say that the words and thoughts of colleagues and ope-ed guests makes them feel “unsafe”, as if these opposing ideas will pick up an axe and bludgeon them.
Orgs like the Times who sacrifice individuals like Weiss, McNeil and Bennet are literally sick - they are captive to the more activist extreme leftists coming up. They don’t reliE they are giving up control of their own organizations to the crazies of the world.
They should take the Netflix approach - we are going to feature a broad base of thought and opinion and if you don’t like it, feel free to leave. Believe me, there would be a long line around the block of the NYT building for replacement applicants.
The funny thing is, the outlets were already destructively liberal. The problem is to these crazies, not destructive enough, fast enough.
I was misled by Bari subscribing for a year. The features that other people write on her site and the few that she does are rip roaring liberal.
The shame of it all is that people like Bari, Bennet and McNeil never took up the cudgel to make their liberal co-religionists are dangerous to their own movements. If I were chased from my dream job, I’d do that. You wouldn’t be able to shut me up about the Hannah-Joneses and the squads of the world and the danger they pose,to their own liberal move,e t.
But I guess Bari recognized that the money scraped from 220,000 non crazy liberals is too much to risk.
So she keeps churning out the works of hard left but not extremist liberals and cashes her checks.
He's like a Californian who gets fed up with the wacko and damaging policies of his state, moves to Austin, and then votes for the same policies all over again.

I believe he has a few personal issues he could be working on as well based on a reading of his own articles of what he went through.
