Good. Ship the thing off to a museum, slap a label on it and use it to educate people. Lest we forget.

Fuck cancel culture.

I know cancel culture has long gone the way of being completely meaningless like "woke" and all the other renditions of the same phrase but this still feels incredibly silly to label as "cancel culture" lol

I always tune out when someone uses "cancel culture", "woke" or something else silly

i literally respect the uwu speaker more than the people crying cancel culture/woke

I used to think "virtue signalling" was just some made up crap but it seriously feels like the most apt description for how right wingers use "woke", "cancel culture" in general, etc. Just empty, meaningless buzzwords solely there to signal your political leanings to whoever is listening.
