It's not an excommunication, no one deposed a king. The aha couldn't possibly ignore his twitter feed in the age of twitter. That would be a dereliction of their own self professed purpose. His body of literature isn't now nor has it ever been free of assertions which run contrary to humanist values.
They were overlooking that before..perhaps on account of whatever other (conceptually greater) body of work that mattered to them...seems their patience has run out. Dawkins has voluntarily made himself a cancel culture warrior, and worse (at least from their pov), thrown his chips in with the bigots. What else was the aha going to do about that?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
