It's not "cancel culture", it's terrorism. When you threaten a person's job, family, friends, life it ain't free speech anymore.

The companies that fire people are also culpable in this matter. They have created this environment, in order to prevent collective bargaining, and constructive discourse. This is how corporations and governments maintain a culture based on indentured servitude. The issue is not with those who speak, but those who listen, and promote a society controlled by fear, and debt.

I've been shocked at how much the public just lets corporations/businesses run culture and society entirely. It's not just based on indentured servitude. A company says do this/don't do this, and it suddenly becomes the golden rule in mainstream society, actual laws and actual politicians be damned. We live in a solid corporatocracy and it seems like only a few people recognize it for what it is.

You're saying wokism is the new anti-unionization? Wow, that's deep. I wonder what coal miners from 100 years ago would think about getting fired because you said something management found distasteful? The more they change the more they stay the same.
