- gmarx 2y agoI refer you to the definitive resource on this issue- the movie "Mean Girls". This movie is the key to understanding the current age.
- rootusrootus 2y agoEarly on perhaps that was true, but cancel culture seems to have broad appeal across the political spectrum these days. Although you could make an argument that it still leans left on the public side, with more of a focus on private death threats and harassment on the right. They don't approach the problem of crushing dissent with exactly the same strategy.
