Nowhere is this attitude more evident than in the latest issue of Private Eye. Trying to reframe Kirk’s murder as a liberal-versus-illiberal or ‘both sides’ problem leaves you on very shaky ground. Yet according to Private Eye, the ‘activist right’ is now putting its energy ‘into trying to cancel anyone who mocked or welcomed the killing’. Not so ‘Lady Liberty’, at the blunter end of the progressive spectrum with the rest of the leftover liberals and Good People. Private Eye, as usual, just snarks.
