Everyone is a hypocrite and people who act like free speech absolutists are some of the worst. There have to be lines of commonly accepted behavior, not just in polite society but very basic standards. Everyone has standards. If someone claims they don't want any standards enforced they are either lying to you, or the behavior they are defending (i.e. endorsing the brutal murder of a presidential candidate on live tv) isn't all that bad to them. The only question is where is that line set?
I don't even get why people are calling this "cancel culture", which was always a misnomer but that's beside the point. No I don't want normal people to lose the ability to work or have bank accounts frozen for spicy opinions and jokes expressed in their own free time. What the fuck does that have to do with this? I only want violent degenerate communists to suffer. You cannot share a society with them.
