Woke cancel culture is a bigger threat to honest people than most governments.
- a1369209993 6y agoThat might be technically true if you consider woke cancel culture as a single entity and compare it individually to each of the 200-ish less-than-median-size countries (and is definitely (technically) true if you count each state/province/city/county/etc government), but we don't actually care about the average government, we care about the governments that are the biggest threat to honest people, like America, Russia, and China.

But, yes, social justice goes hand in hand with facism as the two main pillars of naziism.
