Regarding the Harper's Letter, and the response that, for instance, Andrew Sullivan cheered on the Iraq War and was intolerant of those with dissenting views...
this is an argument for the truth of the Letter, surely.
That was bad then, and it produced bad consequences by tilting the public discourse against the side that would have made some move to deescalate.
Only with an excessive focus on identity could this be seen as a response to the Letter, as opposed to a requisite focus on consequences and principles.
