Seth Peterson: Is it too much to ask for the stoppage of cancel culture? Just because something makes you uncomfortable or has a few skeletons (news flash: we all are fallen humans) doesn't mean you have to get rid of said thing or person entirely. Keep at it, and we'll have a completely sterile culture, void of any meaning or sustenance.
Logan Long: My dawg, to play a little devil's advocate, or not, would it be wrong to tear down swastikas after WWII? I dislike cancel culture as much as you, but we should distinguish victory from cancel culture. Native Americans are beginning to claim victory over being the target of years of genocide.
