Another proof that ”cancel culture” does not exist.

Conservatives will have you believe that saying things that are offensive to minorities will have you ”cancelled”, that social justice activists will drive you from your home and get you fired from your job. They want you to live in fear that trans people are everywhere ready to ruin your life if you so much

When did popular billionaire J.K. Rowling ever get ”cancelled”?
