I think it was Dostoevsky who wrote, “Tolerance will reach such a level that intelligent people will be banned from thinking so as not to offend the imbeciles.”

That's all this is. Burning well-known and intelligent and successful people in effigy to condition the broader public into adopting a range of politically acceptable norms and behaviors.

Always love to see an example of someone not beholden to a delicate constitution stand pat. A rarity.
