There have been 112 speakers, signs, statues and other targets completely canceled on campus during the last academic year, and another 74 attempted cancelations, according to The College Fix’s Campus Cancel Culture Database, which tracks such incidents.
That amounts to a total of 186 campus cancel culture incidents from June 1, 2021 to May 31, 2022. Put another way, there have been almost four campus cancel incidents per week over the past school year.
“For people who claim that cancel culture is a made up right-wing phenomenon, I invite them to scroll through page after page after page of our Campus Cancel Culture Database,” said Jennifer Kabbany, editor in chief of The College Fix.
“You can’t go a week without something on campus being memory holed, erased, fired, renamed or what have you,” she said. “Thank God for the database, or America could easily lose track of how many things have been censored and purposely forgotten by this country’s colleges and universities.”
Over the past 12 months, professors’ comments or their research were most likely to lead to some sort of cancelation, whether the scholar was fired, suspended, disinvited or shouted down. There were a total of 41 such incidents during the 2021-22 school year, with 20 professors outright canceled and another 21 who faced protests.

I take it the Database has achieved consciousness in order to find things.
Campus Cancel Culture = China’s RED GUARDS of the 1960s.
I'm confused by this one:
"At the University of Washington, a top female scientist was forced out of a leadership position after the school found out she had dressed as Michael Jackson at a Halloween party 13 years ago."
Considering how gender mislabeling is so trendy now days the objection must be over what? A white person portraying someone who became a white person? She forgot to bring an accessory chimp?
