Quote from episode: "Cancel Culture is a seemingly convenient and simple solution to social problems, but the only simple thing about cancel culture is that it doesn't often work because social problems aren't simple. It's easy to yell at people on Twitter and feel like you're a champion for social justice; it's difficult to accept the reality that social problems are wildly complex. Perhaps the only thing more painfully complex than social problems are their real world solutions and the process for implementing those solutions. This doesn't mean change isn't possible, it just means that we have to focus our energy and passion in the the right ways and accept that the road ahead will be anything but smooth. When you get mud on your clothes, we all know what happens when you try to clean it right away; it spreads and leaves a stain. Some of us then see the only solution as throwing the clothes away, never to be worn again. But if we wait, if we can accept that the mud needs time to dry before it can be properly cleaned, we will be amazed at how the dry mud just falls off our clothes with a few gentle brushes, and our clothes can be worn again stain free. Let's work together to remove the stains in our society; one brush at a time."
