Why are some people targeted by Cancel Culture and others are ignored? Will free speech and opinion ever be able to exist peacefully on the internet?
On the latest episode of "Right Now with Stephen Kent," Stephen sits down with Gothix and Nick Gillespie of Reason magazine to discuss why some people become prime targets for Cancel Culture; the ongoing battle for free speech on social media and across the internet; what the public reception of Allen Ginsberg's famed "Howl" reveals about censorship today; and if and how we can actually triumph over Cancel Culture and attacks on free thought.
