Survey: Young People Embrace Cancel Culture To Advance Social Justice Even When They Are The Victims
According to the report, “by a 48–27 margin, respondents under 30 agree that ‘My fear of losing my job or reputation due to something I said or posted online is a justified price to pay to protect historically disadvantaged groups.'”Democrats are fond of making fun of Republicans every time the subject of cancel culture comes up for debate, which is often.
“There’s no such thing as cancel culture,” the Democrats will claim, knowing full well and good that for them, the chances of getting canceled for holding viewpoints deemed “unacceptable” or “politically incorrect” by social media outrage mobs and our supposed intellectual betters in the mainstream media are slim to none.
But cancel culture is a very real thing, as Legal Insurrection has documented extensively here. It has negatively impacted all facets of life: the workplace, academia, social media, sports, medicine, politics, science, entertainment. You name it. Any person, place, thing, or idea that offends social justice warriors and their allies in the press is subject to getting canceled at a moment’s notice.
And while anti-cancel culturalists on the right and those who’ve had a wake-up call on the left have been putting up a good fight against the weaponized use of this tactic, a comprehensive new report suggests they still have a long way to go when it comes to changing attitudes, especially among younger generations.
