I mean that doesn't really mean anything when 'woke' 'inclusive' groups want to ban Harry Potter and tried so hard to cancell games like Legacy/Black Myth Wukong/stellar Blade etc... I am sorry but if you go to university protests they are always trying very hard to cancell lectures from 'right' winged speakers. It is clear they don't want a debate, most just want to play the victim role  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NAKH8jdgm8 |
I'm with you in spirit on the topic of political censorship and attempts to pursue it. But on the flip side though, what say you to the now infinite number of "Bud Light moments" conservatives threaten every company and group promoting a concept of diversity on any level today or to the sheer volume of books they're getting banned from school libraries across the country today because of their "LGBT" content? (My favorite example being a book that was briefly flagged by a school library as "sexually explicit" because the author's last name was "Gay" last year. Now that is what I call giving away the game.) What say you to the cancellation of that trans sports episode of the Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur right after Trump's recent election win?
If there's one thing this last decade has taught me it's that nobody is innocent of trying to police the thoughts of people they disagree with...and those of their kids. The political skew of cancel culture at any given juncture just reflects who's ideas are more popular at that time, it seems. Of late it's been mostly conservatives who've been the purveyors thereof, capturing the fact that we're in a more conservative moment culturally right now.
