>I actually have three very specific questions: > > >1. What is PC or Cancel Culture? It's something where if someone said/done anything incendiary in the past they should be "banished" from society. > >2. Who exactly has PC/Cancel culture actually harmed? Most people deserve it because they either harmed/terrorized other people, have not shown any contrition for what they've said/done, or have tried to sweep things under the rug. But you have cases like Aziz Ansari, who got railroaded over a bad date. > >3. What are the specific losses they have suffered? Some monetary. Sarah Silverman lost a job recently, and others take a massive hit to their reputation. > >I really want to parse this out because these terms get thrown >around so much so we should probably all know what we are each >really talking about here. My thing is don't say/do stupid shit and you have nothing to worry about. However stupid is relative >d
