Pope calls out “cancel culture” as “ideological colonization”
The head of the Catholic Church condemned “cancel culture” for “invading many circles and public institutions” and warned that political correctness risks eroding “all sense of identity,” in a speech to Vatican-based diplomats.
Speaking Monday, Pope Francis blasted “one-track thinking” in which individuals express a “mindset that rejects the natural foundations of humanity.”
Warning that this risks eroding “the cultural roots that constitute the identity of many people,” the pontiff then called ‘cancel culture’ a “form of ideological colonization” that could damage “freedom of expression.”
Prayer power clashing with cancel culture?
