>There is no such thing as cancel culture, just like there is no such thing as the Q behind Qanon.
While cancel culture is a derogatory term and nobody flies that flag. The terminology still touches on a real thing. As for Q. Q is horoscopes. They have larger numbers of predictions, most of which are wrong.
>No one person or organization exists to "cancel" things. It's a thing that happens, like nuns all meowing together at the same time. It's a phenomenon of nature, or mind, but not at an individual organization or at a personal belief level.
JKRowling and the book burning would tend to disagree with this.
>In other words, people may be "for" "cancel culture", but the growth and life of the phenomenon itself is empty of meaning in the individualist sense.
I don't understand this. How can people be for it and not for it?
>Also, because things like Facebook enable these memes to form, your statement could easily be rewritten:
>Facebook is being targeted by mass thinking on their platform because of their refusal to entirely ban republicans off their platform.
I'm not sure I necessarily agree that is my position. Though we could fork into a side discussion into the reality that social media represents society and that thinking is what is happening. The only way forward is more thinking and longer discussions. The absolute antithesis of the situation is censorship.
>Now we see the truth of the matter, which is that Republicans support the Tragedy of the Commons for their own gain.
I'm not American. I'm an objective observer. The problem isn't tragedy of the commons at all. We need more thinking and more discussion.
