So yeah, it is overblown but the people on here saying cancel culture doesn't exist is a bit like a load of white guys saying racism doesn't exist.

It does go on and people are definitely fearful of voicing their opinions in front of many 'liberals' in much the same way that others are in front of some conservatives.

None of this is good and pretending it doesn't exist at all is daft
Give us an example I think you’re taking it out of the realm of comedians being cancelled here though, which is what the thread was about.

There’s been a few people stopped talking at student unions after protests, which has always happened. Some rightly some wrongly, that’s how protesting works. But that isn’t being cancelled is it?
