Context: Baen Books, the single biggest anti-woke scifi and fantasy publishing house I can think of (ex. among others, they print the works of Tom Kratman, which would make the eyes of anyone ideologically left of Hugues de Payens bleed), is being accused of basically nurturing right-wing terrorists by the otherwise-obscure nobody Jason Sanford. It basically boils down to some hotheads fedposting in a little too much detail on their forum, which has a reputation for laissez-faire moderation and being host to primarily hard-right views (in addition to obviously being a place to interact with professional & amateur authors being published by Baen).
So far, Baen has shut down said forum. It's uncertain whether this will be temporary or not, but it almost certainly isn't going to be the end of this mess now that Social Justice has once again smelled blood in the water.
