Cartoonist, satirist, and political commentator Scott Adam has been canceled over comments he made that some people have alleged to be racist.

On Feb. 23, a day after he made comments on his podcast, “Real Coffee with Scott,” saying that he doesn’t want to have anything to do with black people anymore, multiple liberal media outlets said they would no longer publish his comic strips.
