Cancel culture certainly elevates some minority voices—the ones that agree with the progressives who dominate entertainment, media, and academia.

But the UK research organization More in Common notes that the “progressive activist” tribe comprises only eight percent of the population. The vast majority of minorities—like Americans in general—aren’t members of that tribe.

Minorities often challenge progressive orthodoxy. And when that happens, the defenders of the monoculture typically set aside their concern for elevating minority voices and punish dissenters.

In other words, cancel culture usually suppresses minority voices.

[Progressives are not interested in *actual* diversity. They are only interested in diversity as a means to seize power, either soft power or otherwise, to impose their orthodoxy on everyone. Period. — Ed]
