Gary Hart is indeed a fascinating example ... because not too long afterward you had a Democratic president who had multiple affairs and it didn't seem to negatively affect his standing or electability ... followed more recently by a Republican president with similar 'shenanigans'. Why was Hart crushed while Clinton survived and even thrived? That has at least something to do with mob mentality (or lack thereof) and (un)willingness to prosecute in the court of public opinion.
Tiki mob is one thing ... but note the utter lack of consequences for individuals involved in burning vehicles, looting stores, etc. during the 2020 BLM riots. That behavior seems (at least to most people) pretty reprehensible, not to mention illegal - but there is neither legal prosecution nor popular prosecution. Why? Because 'the cause' was in closer sync with the spirit of the age. I think that is Pi's point (though I could be wrong) - and on that, I tend to agree with him. If you're on the 'right' side of contemporary wokeness, you have very little to fear from mob mentality or prosecution in the court of public opinion; whereas if you're on the 'wrong' side, you have a great deal to fear - even if the outward actions of the former are debatably as inflammatory or illegal than those of the latter.
