Written by my colleague, Jonathan Judaken, who shared in a public Facebook post that this piece had been accepted by Quillette (a venue he chose specifically to reach a right-leaning audience) only to have the right do what the right does - the managing editor pulled the piece, because "she said that in contrast to the argument of my article, she did think that the left were responsible for Bondi Beach." So much for "viewpoint diversity".
It is a thoughtful and precise piece that serves as "a critique of both the Right and the Left in terms of how they think about militant jihadi Islamism as part of the Left or nurtured by the Left, showing instead how this is based on a category error, since these groups from ISIS to Hamas belong squarely to the family of hard-right religiously inspired authoritarian movements, mirroring white Christian nationalists and Jewish supremacists in their animating values and positions"
