On the left, liberalism is under siege by a new, illiberal orthodoxy that has taken root all around, including in the very institutions meant to uphold the liberal order. And cancellation is this ideology’s most effective weapon. It uses cancellation the way ancient societies used witch burnings: to strike fear into the hearts of everyone watching. The point is the assertion of power. By showing the rest of us that we could be next, it compels us to conform and obey, either by remaining silent, or, perhaps, offering up our own kindling.

- Bari Weiss, who quit The New York Times because of its woke culture, in an article titled, “The self-silencing majority”

Like the Salem witch trials and the McCarthyite hysteria, when wokism fades, we are likely to see its real catalysts revealed. And they will not be found to be misplaced idealism, nor heartfelt desire for a more ecumenical society, but mostly the age-old, narcissistic destructive road to career enhancement, fueled by customary ancient fears, envies, and hatreds.

- Victor Davis Hanson, in an American Spectator article, “Hitting Woke Herd Immunity?”

I have great respect for the Royals, and I don’t think the British royal family are racist at all. I don’t think the British are racist. I think Los Angeles is racist, California is a racist, but I don’t think the Brits are.

MORE QUOTES

Meghan said that at one point things got so bad, she went to H.R. at Buckingham Palace for help and they refused to help. It’s funny that the royal palace has H.R. and it’s just as unhelpful as H.R. everyplace else.

— Jimmy Kimmel

Hold up, you’re saying Buckingham Palace has H.R.? How long has that been around? Because you would think someone in Human Resources might have stepped in to tell Henry VIII that chopping off your wife’s head could be interpreted as a hostile work environment.

— Stephen Colbert

Well, guys, I have some news to make people feel a little better, and that is the royal family is just as messed up as everyone else’s.

Britain’s Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan Markle sat down for an interview last night with Oprah Winfrey, or as British tabloids reported it, “Harry’s kidnapper speaks.”

— Seth Meyers

Yeah, it was a big event, mainly because they revealed the baby’s gender in California without burning down an entire forest.

— Jimmy Kimmel

The ratings were so big, ABC just offered the couple their own weekly show called “Royal-ish.”

— Jimmy Fallon I was trapped but I didn’t know I was trapped. Like the rest of my family are, my father and my brother, they are trapped. They don’t get to leave, and I have huge compassion for that. For the family, they very much have this mentality of: “This is just how it is. This is how it’s meant to be. You can’t change it. We’ve all been through it.” What was different for me was the race element, because now it wasn’t just about her. It was about what she represented.

– Prince Harry, in an interview with Oprah that aired in the U.S. on Sunday

So…any criticism of Meghan or – Oprah (G-d forbid!) – is not allowed bc…it’s racist? Well, too bad. Unlike the paternalistic wokesters trying to protect this famous millionaire/billionaire pair (who chose to go on TV), I see them as fully capable of taking a few barbs. Grow up.

– Megyn Kelly responding to those who took umbrage with her criticizing Meghan Markle and Oprah

- Tweet by a Hollywood celebrity

I watched M & H sit down. Emotional distress & racism must feel suffocating & powerless. I’m a polarizing, unfiltered (often to a fault) flawed person w a voice. When I heard of the interview, during a pandemic, it felt like a surprising choice. I’m sorry if it hurt or offended you.
