Your comment is confusing. Flynt fought the government, people who are complaining about cancel culture are complaining about people not liking their spicy takes.

This is oversimplification.

There’s quite a difference between “not liking” and ruining career, denial of access to services etc.

Part of the problem is that only small group of people really “don’t like it” but capable of cancelling, and vast majority of people are happy to just ban that person in their feed and go on with their life (and large number of people are actually open to opposing views).

How cute and simplistic.
