HaLevi: Its happening, whether you consider it “silly” or not. The political and religious culture wars have intensified efforts to ban or marginalize published materials that might not have been controversial several years ago but now are deemed offensive or even dangerous. I would agree that the media have been overly sensitive to the snowflakes whose “sensibilities” are offended by “trigger words” but censorship at both ends of the political and religious spectrum is clearly on the rise.
