Liberals fuel cancel culture because they don’t fear getting canceled

Liberals once prided themselves on being open-minded. In contrast, today’s resurgent Left seeks to police opinion and ruin the lives of those who disagree with them. Whether it’s in the world of business or sports, on college campuses or within newsrooms, there has been a significant shrinking of discourse, thanks to efforts by so-called liberals to target those who disagree with them.

Now, a new poll provides some insight into why that may be.

And they are right not to fear because non-liberals are not nearly as likely to be cancelers.
