Cancel culture
The term cancel culture refers to the widespread utilization, primarily on the left, of female-typical patterns of antisocial behaviour such as reputation savaging, gossip, innuendo, mobbing and exclusion to isolate, demoralize and destroy political or personal enemies.[1]
Cancel culture or call-out culture is a modern form of ostracism[wp] in which someone is thrust out of social or professional circles - whether it be online, on social media, or in person. Those subject to this ostracism are said to have been "cancelled".[2] Merriam-Webster[wp] notes that to "cancel", in this context, means "to stop giving support to that person". Dictionary.com[wp], in its pop-culture dictionary, defines cancel culture as "withdrawing support for (canceling) public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive." The expression "cancel culture" has mostly negative connotations and is commonly used in debates on free speech and censorship[wp].[3]
The notion of cancel culture is a variant on the term call-out culture and constitutes a form of boycotting or shunning involving an individual (often a celebrity) who is deemed to have acted or spoken in a questionable or controversial manner.[4][5][6]
Notably, many people claiming to have been "cancelled" often remain in power and continue their careers as before. Moreover, some cancellations have also been defended as exercising free speech and promoting accountability. Others criticize cancel culture as creating a chilling effect[wp].[7]
