    Right narrative

    Thomas is right to be concerned about the repercussions of cancel culture for civil debate; it's restricting people's ability to engage healthily in arguments around government, social issues, legislation and law.

    Left narrative

    Whilst Thomas expresses faux outrage at a right-wing term like 'cancel culture,' progressive movements have allowed American society to move past segregation and inequality. His comments reveal a double standard, as the GOP continues to erode justice systems and civil liberties.
