First, the situation is not the "same as it ever". Clearly, we are seeing a cultural trend towards more censorship. Secondly, I invite you to consider this: Being gay was seen as a completely "abhorrent" idea a few decades ego [1]. So, did that fact somehow made it good and justifiable to "cancel" someone for being gay? [1] Some people find it "abhorrent" even today, some countries even have laws against homosexuality.
