No, the fact that Masha Gessen won the award and was consistently supported by the prize givers suggests otherwise.

edit: I think the reason I’m being downvoted is because the article unclearly refers to the “foundation” as pulling support. That Foundation was the venue for giving the award, not the org giving the award. The org giving the award steadfastly supported Gessen. My point is that, despite massive pressure from the venues hosting the award ceremony (which must be condemned), the good folks who give the Hannah Arendt prize would, in-fact quality Hannah Arendt for the Hannah Arendt prize in 2023 – because they continue to stand-by her legacy and refuse to be pressured against her values.
