Cancel Culture Brainrot

The idea that cancel culture is justice. People who show these signs will cancel people for saying anything even if it is minuscule and the person they are trying to cancel has not actually committed a crime. The idea of cancel culture thrives on hate and not justice bringing people who are both hateful and sensitive to the topic.
