NBC Late Night host Seth Meyers proved on his Thursday show that he has no idea what cancel culture actually is as he accused Republicans of engaging in it as they pass various education laws and kick Rep. Ilhan Omar off the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Starting with education policy, Meyers claimed that, “Trump and DeSantis, they're just competing to see who can win the right-wing culture wars. That's why DeSantis has built his entire agenda around culture war nonsense. In fact, this week a viral video found at least one school library in Florida that was basically empty because of DeSantis's dumb rules against supposedly woke subject matter in schools.”
After playing a clip from a local news report, Meyers returned, “And I do hope -- I do hope every pundit who claim the left is responsible for cancel culture is losing their minds at all the books coming off school shelves. Because this isn't theoretical, it's real. Teachers, librarians, school districts, they say they have no idea what's allowed and what's not under DeSantis' censorship laws.”
Did Meyers watch his own video? In the video, the reporter says the shelves are empty because the books were taken by “taken by a substitute teacher.” The books will return and when they do, people like this substitute teacher and Meyers will not come back and say they overreacted.
