That's the thing. Whoever thought Trump would win a landslide after all that stuff he has said and been through in courts and so on.
Sometimes "cancel culture" is just talk.
Cancel culture is a direct response to Donald Trump.
In the 90s and early 2000s edgy racism was somewhat acceptable. Homophobia and sexism was mainstream all the way into the 2010s. De La Soul could say the lyric "work hard like wetbacks" and nobody raised an eyebrow.
Then America elected a guy who grabbed woman by the pussy, called Mexicans rapists, tried to ban Muslims, spread racist birther conspiracies, and openly courted white supremacists. All of that stuff became poisonous overnight.
If it were proven you had ever said anything remotely racist, sexist, homophobic, or anti-immigrant your career was over. Even if it was decades ago. Even if you didn't say anything, showing the smallest amount of support to someone who did would make you just as bad as them.
Notice at all that cancel culture stuff died down as soon as Biden was in office.You still couldn't get away with producing a film like Pulp Fiction or Sin City, but you wouldn't lose your job for something you tweeted in 2012 either.
Now that the Commander in Cheeto is back in office cancel culture will come back bigger than ever. If you own a Tesla I suggest you sell it. Even if you bought it in 2017.
