> A long list of thinkers, including the likes of Chomsky himself, had to come out and publicly admonish the 'cancellers' (mostly on the far left) for the systematic problem. Please re-examine what right-wing cancellation means. School administrators leaving because of right-wing pressure that "diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives" = "CRT" = "toxic propaganda" = ideological poison" is cancelling by the right, yes? https://www.propublica.org/article/georgia-dei-crt-schools-parents https://www.propublica.org/article/georgia-dei-crt-schools-p... ] Parents Defending Education has created “indoctrination maps” tracking everything from a district celebrating “Black Lives Matter week” to one that allows students to watch CNN Student News, while the Atlanta-based Education Veritas and Kahaian’s Protect Student Health Georgia provide portals for anonymously reporting educators supposedly sympathetic to CRT, DEI and other so-called controversial learning concepts. ... ] And with that effort came a renewed vilification of CRT, a four-decade-old theory that, contrary to its opponents’ accusations, is rarely if ever taught in K-12 public school systems (it typically is taught in graduate-level college and law school courses). ... ] Using local media coverage and lawsuits, ProPublica has identified at least 14 public school employees across the country, six of them Black, who were chased out in part by anti-CRT efforts in 2021. Sure sounds like right-wing cancel culture to me. Odds are, you haven't heard of them. All the examples you gave were of famous people. But Steven Pinker is not cancelled. Sean Penn is not cancelled. JK Rowling is not cancelled. Not in any meaningful sense. Operatively speaking, "cancel culture" seem to mean "rich and powerful who don't like to be criticized". And it's pretty easy to show - define "cancel culture", then see how well it applies to many right-wing actions, like the Southern Baptist Convention's 8 year boycott of Disney, or the broad right-wing opposition to Kaepernick's kneel, which was much less than the recent Supreme Court judgement concerning a "quiet" prayer at the 50-yard line.
