can you not use a famous actor as your opinion's background image? thank you.

Fucking Brutlyn Jenner wants to cancel cancel culture ...

I love number one. Hes the goodest boy.

I sort my favorites by their reference. But which folder do I choose for this? Wayne’s World? Or Trek?

Most of the Confederate monuments and revisionism were cancel culture. Justifying their evil ways.

Cancel culture is real! I know a guy who got thrown out of an internet community after simply being accused of something.
confanity
...I mean, he was kind of an antisemite and could be an argumentative dick at times, but I'm sure that that's completely unrelated.

Emm Patrick Stewart is from Yorkshire, England.
ErniesWidow
We're discussing Jean-Luc Picard. Who's Patrick Stewart?
zFUBARz
But Jean-luc Picard is from La Barre, France.

It's pretty funny too, because right now in France I see a lot of debate pop-up that kinda agree that the US are going wayyyy to far in the
TisIChenoir
Censorship department. Also that we should educate more than erase mistakes...
IAmTheBasicModel
its not censorship if someone says something ppl don’t like and are hated for it. censorship is not being allowed to speak in the 1st place.
Askingforafriend37
Well I mean republicans are tryna ban teaching of critical race theory in schools so...
ScorneontheCob
I kind of think cancel culture goes too far sometimes. If someone called someone a fag on the internet 10 years ago but has since learned
jessika95ve
Or the times someone is burned alive then later it is discovered that it was all a lie or an exaggeration.
IAmTheBasicModel
i don’t necessarily disagree but i don’t think the “offenses” being committed are as “innocent” as calling someone fag. stop gaslighting.
Bigboxajunk
Cancel culture appeals to some people’s need to feel superior and the enjoyment they derive from judging others.
tone0508
I think its fine tbh. The only people who can cancel you are the ones who were watching or supporting or buying your stuff. If you do or did
tone0508
something that makes them not want you anymore, thats between you and them. You can't cancel someone you didnt like to start with.
aleister94
yeah people overreact to things but that's not what the term "cancel culture" refers to
TielKiri
As a linguist, a word can be used to refer to multiple things. Personally I have a preferred definition, but others are still valid
TielKiri
To be fair, it’s not a binary system, it’s more like a spectrum. The less reasonable it’d be to cancel, the fewer people would do it, but-
TielKiri
with hundreds of millions of people, there will always be some who’ll try, no matter how far of a reach it’d be. Even if we improved cancel-
TielKiri
culture to a great degree from what it seems to be, we’d still see that, sometimes
sciencenf10
Any kind of social interaction can go too far. But cancel culture has been around since forever — used to be called shunning, or even exile.
erischilde
Or "the free market" or "opinion". For the GQP at large to complain while ejecting senators from positions is, writ large, hypocrisy.
EmanNiemThcin
And that was a shit concept because it usually came from a selfrighteous mob https://bigthink.com/culture-religion/philosophers-exile
Timeandrelativedimensionsinspaghetti
But the internet weaponized comparing that stuff to today is like comparing muskets and machine guns
BrazilianThunderPanda
Fag or R-Word is one thing, but blackface or the N-Word to me says a mindset that causes concern
imonmyownside
Just don't get offended on anyone's behalf.
erischilde
This. Call out actions directly, don't go jumping ahead of others. Usually those kinds do get called out and buried in the end.
yeahIbreedtreelizards
It's the mindset that people or kids dressing up as other ethnicities is "blackface", and evil. A black kid can dress up as spiderman or->
yeahIbreedtreelizards
->Superman, a white kid can dress up as black panther or Maui. I see no problem with people putting on makeup to portray another race.->
yeahIbreedtreelizards
->in and of itself. Blackface, that is a mockery of a race, and is a different story. Cancel culture equates them.

Well, I better bury the pics of my very white looking son in his Korean hanbok on his 1year birthday in case he wants to run for office.

Rapscallion. It's a bit more extreme than ne'er do well but not as bad as the s word.

The n-word... Nincompoop!
Zalophus
Everyone is capable of change, even racists. It's ALWAYS important to find out who they are now instead of just assuming they are the same.
erischilde
Well that's it, isn't it. Most by far, are being called out for what they are doing now. Some have been badly acted on, but by far a /1

Minority. Is it right? Fuck no. But throwing out the baby with the bathwater is absurd too. Specific groups have co-opted the complain to /2

Pretend it's an assault on them for flippant reasons when they are actively, obviously, openly assholes. See entire GOP. Matt Gatez, mtg.

Especially after a decade
TisIChenoir
Also, you can't really judge people for the morality of their time. You can judge the morality, but I'm pretty sure even the most empathetic
TisIChenoir
And compassipnate human on earth today will be regarded as a scumbag in 300 years
ScorneontheCob
not to do that and matured into a better person, why use it as a reason to say they’re terrible and should be canceled today?
seedye
Cancelling isn’t a thing. People who’ve been “cancelled” either never lost their career, got it back, or turned their anti-PC fame into $$.
NotSomoneElse68
Hey everybody, @ScornontheCob just called someone a fag on the intertnet.
Nippledeepinahorse
Yes, but tbf they were being a bit of a fag. /s
scornonthecob
Typo in your mention lol that wasn't me....
jf0122
If you have really changed...prove it and thou shall be un-cancelled!
lostanargumentwithmyself
How ?
OldManCoyoteWasTaken
Its impossible. Its a purity test
WilliamWeird
Because they can prove that they've grown. There isn't good or bad people, only the ability or inability to be better than yesterday.
LurkerOfDarkness
Burden of proof is usually on the accuser, so you need to prove 0 growth in a decade.
WilliamWeird
No burden of proof when a writer for community shared that Dan Harmon sexually harassed them in the past, he stepped up and read an apology.
WilliamWeird
(Woah, vote equilibrium)
copperdomebodhi
When right-wingers whine about "being cancelled," they mean "being criticized." Know whose career was actually canceled? Colin Kaepernick.
WhatTheWhatTheWhatTheWhat
I'm all for Kaps cause but his play kinda petered out. If he was a great player, he probably would have had a job.
copperdomebodhi
NFL is full of players with worse stats. Kaepernick was canceled for challenging police brutality.
