People against freedom of speech and opinion more now.

Oh okay. But cancel culture is an issue of right and left then, as oppose to being independent of those political parties?

Okay, I don't see how that is racist and Cyrus used a misogynistic term so what he said was misogynist. Anyone guy thst calls a woman the c word or the b word or the w word are misoginists IMO.

It's both.

It's an insult for tightly curled hair.

So it means 'ugly black whore with ugly black people hair'.

Freedom of speech does not mean people are required to give you a platform. Youtube and Facebook banning certain language or banning users for using certain language may technically be "censorship", but it is NOT an infringement of free speech. You can still say it, just not HERE. Freedom of speech does not mean you are required or obligated to assist in the proliferation of someone's message. This applies to companies like youtube and facebook. They can remove anything they deem to violate their standards. Their standards can be whatever they want them to be, with a few exceptions.

Free speech doesn't work the way people seem to think it does. The amendments to the constitution are not absolute and infinite in scope and reach. Under the provision of strict scrutiny, impositions can be made, even to the amendments to the constitution. The supreme court has the authority to interpret the laws and amendments of the nation, and determine their constitutionality, and set precedent for how the law should be interpreted in specific or unclear cases.

In the matter of freedom of speech, the court has made many rulings that people don't like or choose to ignore, but are quite real none the less. You can't make people recite the pledge of allegiance - not even kids in school. Burning or otherwise damaging the american flag IS a protected form of free speech. The government CAN dictate WHERE and WHEN you hold a public assembly. If you're a convicted felon, your right to bear arms CAN be suspended. The constitution and the bill of rights are not an ironclad list of inflexible decrees. They're more of a guide of the direction we're supposed to be going. That's why we change them or add to them from time to time. That's why they're called amendments. You can amend them.

Just think of it like working at a work place or going to a support group or being in school, there had always been rules on what you couldn't say there. Schools I have been too had zero tolerance for any gun related and drugs and alcohol and clothing with it. If you wore a shirt that had anything about drugs or alcohol, they would either send you home to change your shirt or make you wear it inside out. If you had any of this on your assignment, it would bring down your grade. Someone once drew a whine glass on their project and was confused why they didn't have an A. The science teacher pointed to the glass. The student thought that was so R word.

Religion is pretty much not allowed either at work nor at public school, I mean talking about it of course. Some places don't even allow politics.

I don't see how social media is any different. If you are unhappy about it, find another platform. I know there are plenty already like Parlor or saidit. I find it hilarious how I see people on youtube saying "find me on (insert website here) where I can speak things youtube censors" and I wonder why are they still on that platform. Just go already. I think they are just doing it as an ad as someone pointed out and I gotta agree here.

Imagine if this worked like real life. "Hey everyone, go find me at (insert school here) where I can express myself freely without being censored this school does" and they continue attending that school. You wonder why are they still attending if they had found another school to transfer to. Same applies to work places too.

I sure learn something everyday, Google didn't even recognize nappy and hoe as a slang racist term. There is Candance Owens answer, if the search engine doesn't recognize the term, how would the leftists know?

"Nappy-haired" is a frequent insult from one African-American woman to another. Somebody from another race better not insult an African-American woman that way.

It means that one's hair is like Brillo, and is the opposite of stereotypical "white people's" hair (straight, silky, and soft).
