    Do people not have freedom of association in the UK? It looks like he expressed an opinion, and a bunch of people decided they didn’t want to accociate with him any more.

    I still laugh when I see people complain about “getting cancelled”. There is no movement “cancelling” them, there is no unification or single group of people doing it. People stop associating with them because they come out as outwardly atrocious people. Coming out as pro-discrimination will and should make people think twice about associating with you.

    There is an adage I remember about stuff like this - “If five people sit down at a table with a Nazi, there are six Nazis at the table”

    Edit: I see I just commented on a fox clickbait that was posted by a bot. I am sad now.
