    You do realize you just described cancelling, right?

    Cancelling is when society decides a behavior is unacceptable acceptable and imposes consequences for behaving in that manner.

      I don’t hear people that got fired for screaming at their boss and got fired for it “getting cancelled”.

      It’s not like they went anywhere - they are still walking around, free as a bird, and many of them even still have a platform to have millions hang on their every word…it’s not like some Big Bad Deep State Actor colluded to fire them from a show or ban them from a platform just because they don’t think Terms of Service apply to them.
