A quick primer on hate speech before you confuse yourself further: hating an individual because of that individual's opinions does not constitute any relevant definition of the term. https://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/hate

You don't find it disturbing that teachers are cheering his death. This is not cancel culture. 4
AlBUNDY4TDS Posted September 11 Posted September 11 You have the right to express your views, just like your employer has the right to fire you for them. Not cancel culture. 1 4

Damn dude. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancel_culture Definitionally, it is cancel culture. Social media outrage, citizens reporting people for their transgressions, calling for firings. The only difference between this example of cancel culture and thousands of others is that this time you're the one who is outraged rather than the one defending free speech.

Do you think making semi controversial comments is different than cheering on the death of someone you disagreed with? Cancel culture does apply to one of these above examples.
ScotSHO Posted September 11 Posted September 11 Flawless Jauranamooo logic -> Misgendering a tranny = killing people. 1

AlBUNDY4TDS Posted September 11 Posted September 11 If the cheering of murder is reprehensible, why are you getting upset they are being outed? Those people are monsters right @Jauronimo

Cancel culture does apply to one of these above examples. I don't know what "semi controversial" comments you are referring to or who deemed them only "semi controversial". Further, I don't know how this hypothetical of "semi controversial" opinions is even relevant. It is obvious that you are advancing a highly flexible and personally convenient definition of what cancel culture entails. Luckily, for us we don't need to debate the meaning of the term cancel culture as it has already been established.

Can you share some specific examples and how they might parallel the disgusting behavior we are seeing over the last day?
