Cancel Culture

If some one is disinvited to speak at an event, or if they lose their job then they have arguably been cancelled. But offering opposing opinions or protesting against some one's beliefs or behaviour is not actually cancelling them. Cancel culture isn't applied because the term is always weaponized against diversity rather than for it. In a repressive order, very few people survive unscathed. We must never underestimate the power of words to shape public opinion and politics. What i could call the anti woke, cancil culture of the rapid city fall administrators might just back fire. Research shows that young people are hungry for the books denied to them.
