The phrase "Cancel Culture" is one that a lot of people are annoyed about, including me. The whole phrase began a couple of years ago and has since been used to take down people (usually celebrities) for doing something negative. While people's actions should definitely be held accountable, there comes a point where people take "Cancel Culture" too far.

Take a look at Twitter and you'll see that anytime a celebrity says even the littlest thing that has a negative connotation, people will be boycotting them and saying they should be jailed or no longer supported.

This has only been prevalent in the last few years and frankly, it needs to stop. Nobody is perfect and this whole "Cancel Culture" thing is only making is seen like people have to be perfect or else they'll face the consequences.

We, as a society, need to stop this nonsense. Yes, there are people that should definitely not be supported anymore if the thing they do was inexcusable but people don't stop there. People call people out for everything nowadays. Minor car accident? Take away their license and send them to jail. Fail a class? Kick them out of college. These might seem dumb but that is how people thing nowadays and it is ridiculous. It is forgetting all of the good things they've done for making one mistake.

We also need to talk about the canceling of people for things they have done in the past.

The thing about this that annoys me the most is the one where people can be fired for a comment they made five years ago that people don't agree with. It doesn't matter if the person already apologized or has shown they have changed. Once that comment is said, it will stay there forever and there is nothing people can do to change others minds about it.

It will get to the point where people won't say anything at all because anything they say might be used against them one way or another. It doesn't matter if one person disagrees with them or everybody does. "Cancel Culture" has made people afraid to do everyday normal things because one person might not like it which can dictate everything. Something needs to change.
