What is the difference between a writer being ‘cancelled’ and a writer being suppressed? Isn’t removing a writer’s works from online the 21st century equivalent of burning books? Should a writer who has been accused of wrong in the past, but never been proven guilty, be cancelled? Though we are all subject to a justice system that favors certain individuals, isn’t it better to maintain the principle of being innocent until proven guilty rather than regressing as a society towards the standard of guilty unless proven innocent?
