Cancel Culture on the Right

The culture wars of the right have been going on for decades but every now and then they flare up in the media as if this was something new. Now the media is going on and on about a school district in the South banning the Art Spiegelman Maus books.

Apparently they don't want kids to learn anything about the Holocaust just like they don't want them to know about the history of slavery and discrimination in American. Or gay people, etc, etc.

It doesn't seem to be long before there will be book burnings. 

Conservatives are always yelling about cancel culture and the Left. They don't like it when people call out their discrimination and hatred for other people and other religions. They don't like having their symbols of hate taken down from public places. But they certainly like to apply cancel culture to people who protest against their hate and discrimination like an NFL football player taking a knee and never being allowed to play again. There are certainly plenty of examples of the right wing cancel culture all over America.
