EXAMPLE:
relative to the newest (2023) reprint of ...The chocolate factory - characters are no longer "fat" or "idiots" after changes by the publisher to make Dahl's works more in tune with modern times. The “enormously fat” boy in the book became “enormous”. that's a form cancel culture
EXAMPLE 2:
idiot n1 : change a 1% or 10% won't change it really, right?
idiot n2 : Absolutely. There are no such things as disclaimers that can be used to inform the user about the diverse structure of what was considered acceptable by past standards, but now is not, and by that understand that what we are going to experience is not to take lightly outside this specific context.
idiot n3 : hey that statue has a penis. it could be dangerous for kids to watch! let's remove it!
EXAMPLE 3 :
Obese is the n-word for plus-sized people. (It's not, and that's not a sentence to use lightly)

A popular trend among social media users allowing activists to publicly shame, or "cancel", media influencers for previous inflammatory posts, sexual allegations, and discriminatory behavior. Cancel culture surfaced due to the similar public shaming trend, the #MeToo movement, where women call out sexual predators. As a result of the cancellation, the individual may lose their job, their status on social media, and their reputation. Canceled people are mainly ostracized even to the point of social media users boycotting products or shows related to the individual.
Brock Turner is Cancel Culture's newest player and has lost his reputation after he was accused of raping an intoxicated woman.

Essentially, jumping on the bandwagon and being a mindless sheep while one person is trying to disprove something that someone else has said.
1: Did you hear that X (Celebrity) has called Y out?
2: Nah, it's just lies.
And then, the entire crowd jumps on one of them,
thus, Cancel Culture.

Cancel Culture is a term describing what stupid women do when they want a rich or famous person to lose their status. They often take to social media in order to attempt to “cancel” a person, and usually do it by bringing up something that the target said or did a long time ago. People involved in cancel culture are always leftists, and usually partake in it because they are jealous of another person’s status yet don’t want to work to improve their own.
Girl #1: “I really hate that Eminem is rich and famous and I’m not.”
Girl #2: “OMG YASS LET’S CANCEL HIM!”
Girl #1: “OMG CANCEL CULTURE IS SO MUCH EASIER THAN IMPROVING MYSELF!”
Girl #2: “OMG YASS LET’S CANCEL HIM!”
Girl #1: “OMG CANCEL CULTURE IS SO MUCH EASIER THAN IMPROVING MYSELF!”
