John Cleese takes stand on cancel culture, blacklists himself over Hitler controversy
Fox News
"Cancel Me" star John Cleese decided to cancel himself and call off a planned appearance at Cambridge University after a fellow attendee was “blacklisted” for doing an impersonation of Adolf Hitler.
"I was looking forward to talking to students at the Cambridge Union this Friday, but I hear that someone there has been blacklisted for doing an impersonation of Hitler," the 82-year-old "Monty Python" and "Fawlty Towers" comedian noted. "I regret that I did the same on a Monty Python show, so I am blacklisting myself before someone else does."
In a follow-up tweet, Cleese added: "I apologise to anyone at Cambridge who was hoping to talk with me, but perhaps some of you can find a venue where woke rules do not apply."
