Veteran Scottish actor Brian Cox denounced “woke culture” and attributed millennials and the rise of social media to proliferating the wave of canceling and shaming those who don’t embrace their points of view.

The 77-year-old actor made the statements during a Tuesday appearance on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” where he talked about his career and pondered the harm done by purported online arbiters of societal standards. Mr. Cox was just nominated for another Emmy award for his role portraying Logan Roy in the popular HBO series “Succession.”
