    "Cancel culture" is being used to describe everything from people disapproving of pedophiles to celebrities being criticised on social media. It's become a means to protect the powerful and wealthy from being scrutinised for things they say or do.pic.twitter.com/lL7iClrHXE

        A lot of what's called "the culture war" is just younger people trying to assert their different social and moral values over older generations who run most of the media. A lot of older media types genuinely fear younger people as woke barbarians banging at their gates.

        The essential truth of modern political debate is that younger people and older people now live on different planets. That's unprecedented: both Thatcher and Reagan won the youth vote. My politics are based on class: this divide doesn't make me comfortable. But it's just a fact.pic.twitter.com/dycxf9Cx1R

        According to @IpsosMORI, in the 1983 Tory landslide, 42% of under-25s voted Tory, compared to 33% for Labour. In the 2019 Tory landslide, 62% of under-25s voted Labour compared to 19% who voted Tory. You can't understand modern political and cultural debate without those facts.

        One correction: The term originated with Black LGBTQ people more than a decade ago. It was then appropriated and bastardized. Great insight otherwise ❣️
