Almost like Netflix ending a really good series on a cliff hanger at season one but instead of a televised series, canceling refers to this act being done a (maybe) not so perfect person’s public career

The new and cringeworthy word everyone has recently been using. They hope for a certain person to be ‘cancelled’.

A modern internet phenomenon where a person is ejected from influence or fame by questionable actions. It is caused by a critical mass of people who are quick to judge and slow to question. It is commonly caused by an accusation, whether that accusation has merit or not. It is a direct result of the ignorance of people caused communication technologies outpacing the growth in available knowledge of a person.

Cancel culture is just a bunch of narcissistic psychopaths on social media who vilifies people to feel important. They always take the chance when given and stretch it as much as they can, as long as they can create a narrative that portrays people in a bad light, no matter the fucking context. Their intent is more about self-empowerment rather than resolving a problem, not actually giving a flying fuck whether people improve or not. What they want in the end is always useless fucking selfish prestige instead of thoughtful and considerate nourishment of other people.

If you genuinely want someone to learn their mistakes, how about just holding people accountable instead of fuelling your fucking worthless ego by causing more harm than they originally did? How about moving on with your own fucking life instead of wasting your goddamn time nitpicking in other people’s lives?

The people who partake in cancel culture are objectively the most counter-intuitive and unproductive group of hive-minded hypocrites on the Internet. They call others out without any second thought and throw out all logic, meanwhile silencing all opposing voices, all with the purpose of continuing their pointless fucking agenda. The worst scenario is when the motive for cancelling is based on something that happened years ago, and then automatically supporting the notion of that past event accurately representing the attitude of the current personality.
Do you realise you don’t need to call out everything you see on the Internet? This shit happens A LOT, and this sort of bullshit response causes more problems than before because people on the Internet will ALWAYS disagree with you no matter what. Along with that, there will be other problematic people who would mindlessly fucking join in to create this mass harassment cult, where they could potentially cyber bully people into suicide. If you see something that is quite offensive, you can simply ignore it and move onto more meaningful shit.

Cancel culture is basically the Salem witch trials of the Internet. Humanity has gone full circle.
