But this was also a clean-cut case.
What about when it isn't?
Just take Mahatma Gandhi. He's controversial too! Just ask Sikhs. Or look into his attitude towards black people!
Churchill! Bonaparte! Mao Zedong!
Should Indians not be allowed to celebrate Gandhi due to his personal views?
Can't Britons celebrate Churchill for defeating Nazis even if they disagree on other actions?
But, for example, I have no issues with people celebrating Churchill for defeating the Nazis, despite knowing his racist views on people of Indian heritage. Same for Gandhi.
Should I be forced only to praise people who can't be cancelled?
(Even Mother Teresa had critics, BTW.)
