Are you?



Do you feel powerful when thousands of other users insults one person for something wrong they said 8 years ago?

Mainly just for abuse/violence. Saying something offensive 8 years ago doesn't mean much to me unless they're making sus statements in the present or recent past.

I don't even believe in it. Being "cancelled" for crimes have also almost always happened, though less people knew about them.

Denying cancel culture at this point is almost like saying the earth is flat

Sometimes I tend to not like giving my money to people/companies with hateful ideas. Idk if that makes me a cancel culturist.

Oh no, it is happening I don't deny that. I just don't subscribe to the concept. I believe there are people who are ready to lash out and cancel people for anything bad. But I also believe it's a minority of people likely who was never interested in the person in the first place, and few actually get long-term "cancellations". Most of the short-term ones for big names are done by executives and producers until they simply get picked up by something else, or even taken back altogether. People are quick to forget and move on. If cancel culture was truly real, then many of these celebrities and big names should be out of work by now. But only a few select ones are.
Hell Ellen name is being dragged through the mud right now, I bet a solid she's still doing her show a year from now or doing some other big project to step away from it.

Sure am. Anytime a celebrity makes me upset, I rush to their Twitter account and search for anything thats remotely incriminating.

Depends on what it is. Typically, the people crying about cancel culture want to defend genuinely awful people, and I'm glad when awful people face consequences for being awful. There's some dumb shit to it too, like how people are still on Kevin Hart, who has apologized several times already for shit he did last decade.

So? Doesn't mean he got cancelled. Just means he's like all the other people in power scared of criticism and accountability.

Also iirc he ended up changing positively after being criticized.

yeah conservatives did invent cancel culture when they tried to cancel the dixie chicks. but by and large the backlash to it is just dudes that are insecure about society getting too sensitive

True. I agree with you calling out hypocrisy. Not to mention the huge number or lgbt people they tried to cancel historically.

I still don't think we should cancel if someone jokingly called their friends a homophobic slur during a game though.

To an extent. I don't use twitter, I don't call for things to be canceled, and I wouldn't sign a petition over it, but 9/10 I don't feel bad for anyone who gets canceled. When you make your living off of entertaining the public that comes with ups and downs. If you get to be a millionaire for saying words on a camera then I guess you better say the right words.
