A Swiss Newspaper did a big survey about “cancel culture” at universities, and I got to comment on the results

The data journalists at the Zurich Tagesanzeiger looked at the coverage about self-censorship, disinvited speakers and online “shitstorms” that supposedly is coming from the US to Europe — and they decided to see if it was actually happening. They surveyed university professors in Switzerland, over 500 responded to their questionnaire. The results (which are self-reported and thus not scientific) seemed to confirm points I made in Cancel Culture Transfer. So they asked me to comment on what they had found. You can find the resulting article here.
