[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This whole thread is a disgusting smear campaign.  [b]It is classic cancel-culture.  [/b]

And as is typical of cancel culture: it is based on lies.  Ilya is in no way a racist!  Just because you disagree with his politics does not give you the right to lie about him or make baseless claims of racism.

I am reporting this thread.  It should be deleted.[/quote]

I am starting to think the definition of cancel culture is being held accountable for your words and actions. [/quote]

If you don’t like the word “cancelled,” just substitute the identical-meaning[b] “held accountable.”[/b]

It’s different because it’s spelled with different letters than cancelled.[/quote]

No, it's Mao's Cultural Revolution.[/quote]

Another hallmark of our former soviet friends is their insistence that anything they don't like is another brick on the road to communism and anything they do like is absolutely right and must never, ever be questioned--questions or dissent are wrong and bad! Indeed, they are cancel culture! How dare we ask Comrade Shapiro to defend or explain himself? Who do we peasants think we are? This is a Very Important man! Questions are communism!

(If you ignore the effect this kind of wrongthink (to use their very Soviet word) has upon free speech and politics, these people are hilarious. We all need to sell them a lot of mlm products.)[/quote]

Oh you’re right, you’re right.

Better to allow no apologies, no explanation, no forgiveness, and just summarily execute his career based on one tweet.

Mao-style.

A university is no place for diversity (diversity of political viewpoints that is).  [/quote]
