Whatever. I posted the link because I think it was a good analysis of the problems that Bennet had in trying to run the NYT op-ed page in the age of Trump. If the only thing you got out of it was that Heer thinks Cotton's piece was bad, you missed the good stuff.
You're not articulating a good reason why the NYT should give space to Cotton to tells lies about antifa and call for a military crackdown on peaceful protest -- you just want to complain about the people who objected to it.
If I were running the Times op-ed page, I would stick to running well-written, interesting ideas, and I wouldn't try to troll my readers. Bennet is gone because he trolled too hard.
