Jimmy Kimmel Wasn't Cancelled (Sargon)

According to Sargon, when it comes to free speech the situation has come down to one group exercising power over the other, rather than standing up for the principle of it (free speech) - where one would be defending speech that one doesn't like. However, those on the left, in exercising their free speech in (legal) celebration of Charlie Kirk's horrible murder, as opposed to illegally calling for more violence, are coming across as unhinged individuals.

The thing that is causing such a reaction on the right, and centre, is that Kirk's murder was an objectively disturbing incident and yet a LOT of people on the left seemed to be gloating about it. Their reaction shocked a lot of people. It's why many leftists are now finding themselves unemployed or censored. How can you trust someone with that sort of mentality?

Of course those calling for more violence, and the murder of more conservatives, ARE acting illegally - as terrorists - and will have to face more serious consequences.

Putting aside these facts the removal of Kimmel is probably not actually due to any of these reasons but because of his show's low ratings. No one is watching him, or Colbert for that matter, and their programs are losing millions of dollars.
