Ai had his show cancelled due to a post on X, which commented on the Israeli-Palestine situation. This caused a lot of difficult conversations around anti-semitism but it is a surefire example of censorship towards an artist who is politically outspoken. How is it now considered hate speech to express distaste at the genocide of thousands of innocent civilians? Looking at History, we seem to be doomed to repeat ourselves thanks to media censorship, fake news and sensationalisation.
