Ignoring the very clear bias/agenda you're trying to present, the lag time of 47 years is huge compared to some other high-profile instances of people being "cancelled". Also you can apologize for something and lack sincerity, which is even more insulting. Personally I'm not a huge fan of the intense court of public opinion of cancelling, but it's absurd to paint it both as a leftist-specific act, or that if you're a leftist then you're allowed to get away with it. I believe in people being able to actually talk and treat each other like human beings instead of monsters. The conversation unfortunately is hyper-polarized and many people aren't willing to even engage with someone who doesn't share the same belief set, and to me that is a shame. I don't think it's fair to paint this as a left/right issue. This total lack of engagement occurs on both sides.
