What happened to cancel culture?

8 posts in this topic

 Do we still have  symbiotic culture chambers that decides what is is and what is not?

In my country, I see people from, let's say, the opposite faction—or rather, the opposite "knowledge field"—because things are starting to move beyond the realm of politics, even if just a little. People are taking matters into their own hands, disrupting the exchange between those who define what is and what is not—those who benefit from others without giving anything back—while exposing them for taking more and more.

For example, people are trying to be more conscious about their attention and resources. There's a Muse concert hosted by an organization with close ties to the government. People are angry about this and are even threatening their friends—saying that if they attend the concert, their friendship is over. It looks like Stage Green is forcing its will upon itself to create a more solidified & defined ground. This seems more like an "us versus us" scenario rather than the easy "us versus them."

How about your place? When practicing daily life as a collective, larger cultural chamber, do you take your personal worldview into consideration and impose your will on your cultural chamber?

What I noticed is constant action from, again, let's say, the opposite knowledge field because participants are not only pro-X or pro-Y. It would be wrong to use the terms "right" or "left." So this constant action I'm talking about caused interesting things to happen—like, who would have thought a bunch of right-wingers would defend a canceled, secular-looking franchise managed by a religious-looking businessman? These right wingers got alienated by other culture chambers in the process.

Muse did postpone their Istanbul concert due to involment from audience. This is shows coorperations are indeed vulnerable and they can't do whatever they want, if they want to milk capital, they should stick with their "right wing" people. I think you westerners should do that too.

Cancel culture was something the left wing did to voices it didn't agree with. 

The right wing is fighting back and creating their own version of cancel culture with a different name.

The leftists are too busy focusing on trump when they get bored they start attacking themselves again. The woke mind virus is real its just focused on the 2 that are trying to eliminate it.

Lol ikr. Silencing voices has always been around but the term "cancel culture" is from the 21st century and is describing an action taken by left wingers i think.
