They are not getting canceled but some are forced to quit or abandon their principles.
In my country this made the headlines a couple of months ago.

Depends on the platform: Twitter I would say does for sure once you achieve a large enough audience where opinions can potentially be swayed. Some schools are worse than others, so I can't say the entire academic system is. I will say, however, that it's not nearly "against" us as many on the left would like it to be but its certainly slowly crawling that way. If the left really was for free speech they wouldn't be have so much vitriol towards people that didn't agree with them. Personally, as a conservative I'm more than happy to have a diplomatic discussion with people that don't agree with me. Some of you are better at that than others though 
If you are a Hollywood actor that is conservative, you probably feel "that" system is against you.

He is a fucking moron, slimebag career politician who is shamelessly virtue signaling votes his way any way he can, there is zero doubt this goofy idiot isnt a bigot too. But GTFO to anyone who even for a seconds thinks Trump isnt way more racist then that geriatric uncle
Its Monthy Python level absurdist parody to litterally say you are voting for Trump because his opponent is racist. I GENUINELY looking forward to someone explaining this to me, because yeah your post isnt it.

I am not going to make a contest although I find the sentence of Biden extremely shocking (to remove any intelligence to a black who would vote for trump), it's so patronizing.
I am not contradicting the fact that Trump is racist, just the fact of presenting on one side Trump as Hitler's grandson and on the other side Saint Biden, defender of the oppressed is false.
Agree.

Agree.
The anger for kneeling by conservatives or the anger by the players to respond by kneeling?
There is a time and place to protest, my opinion is that it's not during the national anthem, but, that is their right so who am I to say they can't? I simply don't agree with it, but I won't hold it against them for protesting a cause. I do not think, for example, is in the case of the US men's NT, is to take an official stance to it. If some want to, fine, if the team wants to, fine but don't take sides as an organization.
I ask initially, because I'm not sure what you're referring to. Kapernick for example, you could argue was "canceled" but he has been given other opportunities, to re-try out but if I recall his demands were a bit diva like. Don't quote me on that because I honestly can't remember so shooting from memory here, referring to a try out he did at a high school or something like that.
Per the players in the NFL...these guys make millions upon millions to play a game and paid by a large section of the population they claim alienates and systematically oppresses them. If they really wanted to implement change that impacts their population I would think they'd take their millions and live in the rough communities they came out of and reinvest to help youth in those areas. That's my take. Granted, I know a lot of these mega-athletes do donate millions already or set up really good charities which is awesome. But at the same time, there is a lot more they could do with that money if they really wanted to make a difference but its nice to see many of them at least giving it an effort to give back.
Conservatives that are pissed off about the kneeling need to deal with it, its one thing to not like the form/timing of the protest, but to outright say they can't do it is wrong. Kneeling for the anthem is a peaceful protest 100% their right as per the Constitution. If people really don't like it, they will tune it out/change the channel/or stop paying for tickets.
The cancel culture does more harm than good and that goes for both sides.

The left has lost the vote of the white middle classes, its electorate are the winning populations of globalization who live on the coasts, and the defense of minorities (lgbt and black latinos) even if it means saying segregationist remark like Biden who think he is owner of the Afro American electorate.
I was referring to conservative anger over kneeling. Many boycotted the NFL, Trump put a lot of pressure on them, which ultimately forced NFL to ban it.
for the record I don’t agree with that form of protest either.
And there was also “shut up and dribble” episode.
