"Of course, the objective existence of deplatforming campaigns, government restrictions on free speech, and antifa attacks on dissidents suggests that such a power structure exists. Believing that everything is just narrative leads to the madness of looking for power imbalances behind every sentence. This has happened to the modern Left, when it tries to deny realities such as the differences between men and women. However, even if language is imprecise and subject to manipulation, it is also the best tool we have to describe reality. Nature withstands the most extreme attempts at manipulation."
