I have yet to see someone talking about "cancel culture" who isn't racist, homophobic, transphobic, <insert various discrimination here>

That person straight up said they don’t have a problem with trans people. Their issue was with cancel culture. How liberally do you want to apply those labels? Because if you throw them around too much, they start to lose their power.

And my answer explained quite clearly that I wasn't talking exclusively about transphobic people. If you cared to read what I said you'd have understood that I was saying that the mere concept of "cancel culture" comes from spaces that are heavily associated with various forms of discrimination, and that the only ones believing that kind of cancel culture bullshit are the ones that are already convinced by the rest.

If you talk about cancel culture seriously, I will take you as seriously as if you start talking about Bill Gates making an evil vaccine to solve overpopulation, or about governments controlled by lizards disguised as humans.

So, although they may not have a problem with trans people, you believe that one of those other labels must apply to them, just because they mentioned cancel culture? Do I understand you now?

Well hello, nice to talk to you.

I judge each person I meet based on how they act and behave. Not how they look or who they love.

What I don't like is people canceling others who are not causing them any harm : for example people playing a hogwarts video game.

What you call "cancelling" is just "refusing to support, directly or indirectly, shit people". It does not and can not prevent anyone from talking or doing anything they want,it does not "cancel" anything. Harassment does those things but that's not what it is about here; also,harassment is illegal.

Canceling isn’t a fucking thing. It’s called bad press and if the billionaire doesn’t like it’s not fucking sad
