There is no such thing as Free Speech, and there should never be such a thing. Freedom to criticise the government or whomever is in charge, without fear of retribution doesn't cover racists, bigots or right wing bloggers.
Right-wing filth are obsessed with immigration, mostly old boomer morons who live in rural areas who'll gladly accept health and social care treatment from the people they demonise on social media.

Please have a chat with Graham Linehan, the co creator of Father Ted, who knows a lot about cancel culture - everything he does in the arts has been cancelled because he says, and insists on saying, "You cannot change your sex.". This "heresy" is so appalling that people in the trans activist movement call not only for people to be cancelled, but also some of them would like such people to die. They are attacked on line, they lose their jobs, some of them have lost their relationships because of the pressure - just for saying "you can't change your sex", "men cannot go into women's prisons, men cant go into women's spaces." Simple stuff that makes sense to any ordinary thinking person, but an appalling act that is considered not "nice". So Alan, just asking people to be nice - tell lthat to the trans activists of Stonewall, whose main purpose is to cancel anyone who believes in biology.
*My Auntie Beryl offered "sustenance" to all the blokes in my village for 12 months a year too, including Alan Titchmarsh's Dad and Grandad, in her "Garden Shed of Love", until she got locked-up in that secure mental facility in Bexhill.*
Good on her sounds like a fine woman your Aunt Beryl. Community spirited - probably kept a lot of marriages together. I imagine she was a bit passed it when young Al came on the scene.
She was a fine and courageous woman Arthur, but it was actually Alan Titchmarsh who did for her with his Tantric Sex Beetroot thing - she could handle just about anything, but not that 😥@@Arthur54321
Why doesn't Titchmarsh question by fools in the Tory party like Jacob Rees-Mogg have stated that if we import food cheaper than we can grow it, then it makes the most sense to import it. Stick to gardening.
7:46 It is telling that he says certain minority groups are intolerant. Minority groups aren't really a threat to free speech. The majority can threaten their right to complain and boycott.
Its called democracy. People can choose to listen (or not) to who they please. Say whatever you want, although the majority will decide if they want to hear it and the impact it has on you.
Who gets to define what the majority think? If you like what someone says you can listen if you don't like don't listen Don't try and take away their platform It's like trying to ban steak because babies can't eat it or banning nuts because some have an allergy
Poor poor Alan with his television programmes and that and being able to come on programmes like this and complain about not being able to say what he wants. It’s almost as if he hasn’t been cancelled… being part of the hegemonic culture and all that.
There is an old expression in the English language " Nail you colours to the mast " It has virtually dropped out of use people are snivelling cowards now afraid to state their opinion
I'm appalled that I'm supposed to have forgotten the entirety of the past. It's genuinely a new name not a new idea. And if you think people's careers weren't "cancelled" over their personal beliefs and personal lives you clearly weren't paying attention. Seriously what do we call what happened to Wilde? The man was given two years hard labour for his private life. If that's not a moral judgement that ended a career, what is it? The only difference is a group of people, who thought they untouchable, can no longer entirely rely on a network of old school chums to keep the lights on anymore. They are at a miniscule risk of facing organic public backlash due to their words and actions that might impact their careers. The horror.
@@blue24563 Except I'm not, "cancel culture" is a scary new thing that is the domain of the "woke left". All this pearl clutching over this new social trend never says "oh it's just like how America treated the Dixie Chicks", it's an entirely new dangerous idea. So we get "Wokeness and cancel culture are the real ‘cancer’ of the 21st century!" a genuine title or "Woke society and cancel culture harm us all" in defence of Scott Adams or essentially anything with "cancel culture strikes again" in the title Or for fun an Australian article called "Enough with the woke era, it's time to cancel cancel culture" which says in its text "The woke brigade are today's Stalinists." and claims back in the '80s things were different. Or the current deputy PM who has such bangers as "Anyone who dares resist this argument - anyone who objects to this woke aggression - is branded as instigating culture wars,". "Don’t let Britain get carried away in this moment of wokery" and started an article "We won’t allow Britain’s history to be cancelled I want to take not a Maoist but a “moreist approach” to heritage". All from different interviews and at all points defines this as a new issue not the way things have always been. Or basically every Tory party conference over the last few years that suddenly has been terrified about dangerous forces trying to destroy the UK through "cancel culture". It's why they use terms like "wokeism" and refuse to define it, it's something new that you target voter disagree with because things used to be different.
It’s good for people to be careful about what they say. It’s fine for any of us to chose to not hear what others say. There is no such thing as ‘cancel culture’ there are only people cross because others do not agree with or what to hear/ see some views.
Being "cancelled" doesn't stop people saying that they think, it's just consequences for actions, the same way as I can insult my boss but I'd face consequences. People in the public eye have their position at the pleasure of the public, they can keep their thoughts to themselves, or they can speak them publically and accept the consequences. Beyond even that, there really isn't such a thing as being cancelled beyond what there always has been, entertainers or politicians have always fallen when they lose public favour and haven't been elected or booked. The difference is that now there is social media so it's easier for public figures who think they need to put their every thought into the world to find out that the people don't care about them as much as they thought.
