cancelling content creators/regular people for minor genuine mistakes or things that only happened once and was self corrected or about ship drama muddles the purpose of keeping genuinely dangerous and harmful people accountable, and makes us look like jokes. there i said it
putting r*ylo shippers or whatever cringey fujo ship on the same playing field as people who are actual real life abusers makes my blood boil. unless theyve actually done something that we need to alert people to to keep themselves safe, just block and move on. PLEASE
it also makes people more suspicious of real victims when they say they dont have proof of their abuse because people online will start a rumor and turn it into another cancellation when it never happened, or insert extras to cancel someone they hate. so now u cant trust anyone
keeping people accountable for their actions is something i hope we can continue to normalise but its pathetic the shit we try to cancel for sometimes that makes us look like we care a lot more about fandom wars than we do real life. end thread
