Cancel culture has been around for pretty much ever. you both know what ostracizing is yes? If we want to stay modern than we could look at N.W.A. in the 90s, or we could look at the Dixie Chicks in the 2000s. This cancel culture boogeyman is just weird cause people have tried to cancel, and people have been canceled, for pretty much ever. this is also ignoring the fact that almost all of our eldritch abominations and cosmic horror stories came from or were inspired from lovecraft.
