Oh you mean like Critical Race Theory, Drag Shows, and getting vaccinated?
Uhh… yes? Are you trying to frame me as some sort of right-wing nutjob? People who complain online about Drag Shows and Vaccines are not okay in the head, but what does that have to do with the discussion?
What do examples of cancel culture being used for bad things have to do with cancel culture being bad?
Oh you meant people who get harassed because they complain about those things. I thought you were saying the opposite.
Well then no, it’s the opposite of what I was saying. Arguably everyone was on board with the fact that vaccines were good before covid, and then it became “controversial”. No one is getting “cancelled” because of a 10-year old tweet against vaccines, because if they tweeted that 10 years ago people would’ve already been angry at that time.
I’m talking specifically about the times a satirical thing from ages ago that no one cared about at the time gets dug up and ruins careers because if it was said now it would be problematic.
Ah, so nothing at all to do with what the article is about. You can see why people might have misunderstood right?
The person I replied to brought up the thematic of “cancel culture” as a whole, and I said what happened in the article was good. I get why people misunderstood but I think I was clear enough in my first comment in saying this is a (rare) instance where it achieved a good thing and I wasn’t talking about that.
This discussion aside, I’m genuinely curious how much you fight back on posts supporting right-wing views vs. cancel culture.
Something tells me you try way harder to fight against one than the other, and when you’re called out you just say, “oh yeah that other thing is bad too. Trust me guys.”
Uhh… I’m pretty left-leaning you know. 1 2 3 4 5
Just because I’m against cancel culture it doesn’t mean I’m right-leaning. Even Obama complained about it. I don’t think there’s a single American right-wing view I share (no, not even about cancel culture because they love doing it as well), and probably the only American politician I like is Bernie.
Take a look at my profile and see if you find anything similar to what you’re “accusing” me of, you really got the wrong person.
