Cancel culture is appealing because it gives those participating in the “canceling” the false satisfaction of justice being served. But those who value true justice must caution against cancel culture and recognize it is the very thing it hopes to destroy: injustice.

Through the columns of our diverse writers, The Daily Free Press’ opinion section will be publishing pieces covering everything from politics and current events (2021 Breakdown, Minority Report) to philosophy (Politics Philosophized) to social movements (Gender Justice, Dear Men).

Our job is, above all else, to report the objective truth. We sacrifice the option of amplifying our opinions to earn and keep the trust of the people we serve. However, there is still a moral obligation to spread informed opinions to our readers.
