Big Tech isn't trying to cancel Kanye West. Big Tech is attempting to moderate their platforms to remove hate speech, gore, calls to violence, etc... It's a difficult job and someone is always going to think they are being treated unfairly

I'm glad we (in the USA) are applying the same absolute standards to free speech that we've come to apply to firearms ownership and display.

Baloney. What is hate speech? It is that which is worth cancelling over.

Think about it. Kanye just did such a genius thing, even a child could see it.

They can’t cancel him for doing something so obvious.

He just walked out onto the media stage buck naked, pretending he was wearing a fancy robe.
