Writer and performer Vanessa Kissule, drag artist Vanity Von Glow, online sex educator Reed Amber and dominatrix Megara Furie look at the rise of cancel culture and ask has it gone too far?

Should people be cast out because they express opinions we find repugnant? What if that's simply a product of ignorance? Cancelling someone means denying them the opportunity to learn and grow. Who hasn’t said something they've regretted, especially on social media - should they be forever condemned for it? Especially when cancelling can be more than calling someone outand might affect your livelihood as Vanity has experienced.

What, if any conversations shouldn’t be had and isn’t it just as important what can be heard as well as what can be said in our digital public spaces?

These are the tricky questions we should think about next time our finger hovers over retweet.
