On November 3, 2021, a new poll from Rasmussen stated “A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports and The National Pulse finds that 72% of American Adults believe cancel culture – a form of censorship that harms the careers and reputations of public figures for doing or saying things that are considered offensive – has gotten out of control. Only 15% disagree, while 12% are not sure.”. This is huge news considering the recent Dave Chappelle Fiasco last month. However, let us consider the fact that 15% disagree with the general public on cancel culture. Completely disagreeing with the Liberal democracy tradition of free speech from Voltaire, who once said, “”I disagree with what you have to say, sir, but I will defend, to the death, your right to say it.”
