Because you just did your usual trick of projecting stuff. What is the question?

I haven't done any tricks. The only projection is from you, coming out with silly wisecrack.

Why is it that you are suddenly posting about cancel culture, when it seemingly had no effect on you before? Happy to be stand corrected, but your over-defensive nature suggests I'm right.

Do you not think this is ironic? I mention cancel culture and you question my right to post about it on a forum?

'It's ok when we do it'. <<<< Who is this we you are projecting onto me?

You still aren't answering the question.

Why is it only now that you are interested in talking about cancel culture?

Does it help that I criticised GB news when they cancelled right wing pundit Guto Harri for expressing solidarity with the England footballers who were racially abused for missing penalties.

Hold on. There’s a pattern emerging here. It’s the right that’s doing cancel culture.

That's errr not the pattern. The pattern is you only call it out when 'its the right that's doing cancel culture.'

Just last night Fiona Bruce was excusing domestic abuse to defend the Tories.

Then Lineker gets sacked for criticising them.

Impartiality my arse.

I don't think cancel culture exists, its something the right/far right have made up to stoke their culture wars.
This is just tory cunts in the bbc trying to squash dissent and anyone shining a light on their nonsense.

It doesn't exist, Lineker hasn't been "cancelled" he's still got all his other gigs and could leave the BBC and walk in to a new job like that.

One of the foreign stations like Star Sports or Be-in would pay him the GDP of small country

Cancel culture is a joke in general, and shouldn't be a thing. There are many examples across the political spectrum, but for the most part it is a leftist activity. You may have criticised GB News on that occasion, and fair play for that, but you are in a minority. Many people (including on here) are for the first time expressing dissatisfaction with it however, because it is being aimed at a person with a left wing opinion. It's why we are seeing so many posts, question dodging, and then defensive posting when challenged.

For the record I support free speech, and even though I think Linekar is a complete twat, he should be allowed to have an opinion. I just think there is a lot of hypocrisy going on. From those trying to cancel him, yes, but also from those suddenly up in arms about it. Those people mostly never cared when it was someone with a right wing opinion that got cancelled, and there's been a lot of examples of that.

Who are the comparable examples who've been suspended for right wing views?
