on "cancel culture"
@mavica someone made the very salient point that "cancel culture" was the domain of mainstream media for many years and was very deliberately controlled. now that social media has given voice to the masses to hold people accountable on their terms, the ones who were able to control the narrative for decades are raging against the bucking of the status quo
on "cancel culture"
@mavica "cancel culture" was perfectly cool and good when it was mainstream press vilifying Sinead O'Connor for speaking out against the pope or the Dixie Chicks for criticising George Bush, but now that ordinary people can hold jk accountable for bullying trans people it's suddenly a """""free speech issue"""""
