Its not just left. Right had to face this too. As a moderate, it's hilarious sometimes that one side would do something and when the other side does something similar, they are all up in arms about it.

We should be allowed to discuss openly without being worried of losing job and humiliated.

Right now, I cannot discuss openly. Majority are silent. And loud ones are a minority.

Kevin hart losing Oscar hosting for a comment 12 some years ago. People who tried to cancel Eminem for his old songs and Rowan Atkinson's speech comes to mind on the top of my head.

Getting offended is a YOU problem. Not a me problem.

Until it's possible for us from both sides can talk openly, these will continue. Just like opposition political parties when one side is in more power, they will try and punish the other.
