Trump, Free Speech, & Right Wing Cancel Culture | A Critical Compass Discussion
For roughly the last decade, the political right has been fairly consistently united in its denunciation of "cancel culture" -- namely because they have been the consistent victim of it. In the hands of a coordinated media/institutional/big tech apparatus seemingly controlled by and for the left, one thing has been clear: Cancel culture is wrong. It unfairly punishes people in real life for off-hand or unserious remarks they make online, and otherwise minor transgressions can become artificially amplified through the viral potential of controversial online discourse.
Now, in the wake of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, a situation emerges in which members of the political right find themselves in possession of what they view as justified cancellations. As members of the left publicly air their disappointment at the missed shot, the right's dilemma will be whether to accept the hypocrisy and execute those public shamings, or take a higher road and abide by the principals about which they felt so strongly when they were in the crosshairs of their political opponents.
