an online culture that forces those with large platforms and influences to take accountability for hurtful actions, i.e. racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexual assault/harassment

An online culture that focuses on calling people with large platforms out to speak on harmful or offensive topics. -Isabel

my definition of cancel culture is like when you cut someone off, or to bring attention to  them
because they did something messed up

The culture of trying to take down things for reasons against the people who worked on it or the thing is offensive in a way.

My definition of cancel culture is disapproving, rejecting someone.

# data[].attributes.body
no, cancel culture mostly applies to people with pretty large platforms

# data[].attributes.body
usually "cancel culture" is online, typically on twitter, and happens when someones hurtful words or actions are revealed to a large group of people, who then go on to work against the normalization of such actions/words and do their best to remove the problematic person's power and influence to do more harm.

Someone/something being exposed and highlighted for its wrongdoings, usually through social media

Usually cancel culture works by taking influence away from someone who has promoted problematic ideas. It can be like having a twitter account suspended, or just the agreement as a community to remove someone from a group and stop crediting them, like J. K. Rowling with Harry Potter. - Lucy

# data[].attributes.body
I define cancel culture as trying to mitigate the online spread misinformation and messages that are harmful to certain groups (ex. women, minorities).

# data[].attributes.body
people who want to hold popular and well known people responsible for bad things that they do, but often end up taking things out of context or using very old interviews and tweets to unfairly turn public opinion against them.

# data[].attributes.body
My definition of cancel culture is where people are kicked out of sociel or cultural circle online or in person.

Cancellation exists on every scale, from individual friend groups, to the world as a whole, I've seen it happen in our community, with people being called out for horrific actions and harm to other people that they've causes

Usually it is online from what I've seen but people will will find out a musician went to jail for a day for stealing from a convenience store years back then put up post and polls to try to cancel them and sometimes it picks up and they get canceled

# data[].attributes.body
personally I consider cancel culture to be limited to large scale online actions, and it can only happen when a great deal of people cut someone off entirely. I think the perception of who is "cancelled" online is greatly larger than the actual number of people who are successfully removed from their platforms. However, there have been attempts at something like "cancellation" at Cleveland when people are called out for being sexual assaulters, but it sadly doesn't really stick due to the small scale.

# data[].attributes.body
i mean i guess, its a bunch of people freely deciding that some popular person is bad, and to not listen to what they say. if twitter or whoever banned the cancelee, however, it would be a restriction of free speech

# data[].attributes.headline
I think cancel culture is more of an enforcement of free speech. Conservatives and right-wing media have tried to weaponize the world "cancel culture" to try to paint a different reality for their followers, in which the whole world is "out to get them" just for doing/saying things that were acceptable in the real world, where as in actuality cancel culture is more focused on highlighting wrongdoings and putting them in plain sight, so the perpetrator has to address them. Free speech is protected, as long as it doesn't promote or cause harm.

To some extent I think it's a fad because people will cancel others just because other people are cancelling them.

Cancel culture is basically when people try to harm someones career or status because they did something bad.

# data[].attributes.body
Cancel culture is free speech.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, by definition it is protecting the free speech of the people who are hurt by those with large platforms and power/influence. It protects the people of color, women, LGBTQ+ folks etc who are so often brought down as if they are nothing at the hands of people in power who never have to take accountability for their actions due to their influence.

# data[].attributes.body
Free speech (the right outlined by the First Amendment to the Constitution) applies to Congress and state governments only. It does not apply to companies, so there's no precedent for legal action to stop cancel culture based on freedom of speech.

# data[].attributes.body
I have not been cancelled and i have never seen a student be cancelled my experience just comes some of my favorite actors and musicians being cancelled for things they did 10 years back.

# data[].attributes.body
basically, someone finds a tweet or an interview or just a common and currently held sentiment and spreads people around on social media, sometimes without proper context

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is here to stay.

Someone gets exposed for doing something wrong, hateful, offensive and they get "cancelled" usually through social media.  -Isabel

I've definitely participated in cancel culture, but it's not something successful on a small scale. I have not been cancelled. I've definitely seen folks at Cleveland spreading information about problematic people in the CHS community to hold them accountable for their actions, but it's hard to "cancel" an individual without a following or popular community to call themselves a part of. - Lucy

disagree, rejecting ones wrong doings. And explaining why, it is wrong and what is ight instead.

# data[].attributes.body
It usually looks like online harassment, it operates by bringing awareness to the bad things someone has done or to punish them for those bad things.

Cancel culture is nothing new, and has been around forever, and is an important self-correcting societal mechanism that keeps our society in check and is pretty altruistic, but the important thing to remember is that public opinion is very fluid, and when someone is called out for something, or cancelled, it's not like they just disappear

Personally, I have not. Cancel Culture mostly focuses to people with large platforms, that are pretty well known. -Isabel

# data[].attributes.body
I hope the good side of cancel culture, the one I consider to be the true form where people are held accountable for large and hurtful actions, is here for a while. As long as people corrupted by power are protected by it, there needs to exist a culture that keeps them accountable.

# data[].attributes.body
while it can and has made the cancelees lives worse for quite a long time, people always move on, and those who are canceled are rarely financially hurt by it in the long run. i'm really not sure how long it will last, i mean, by some definitions here, it will be around as long as human society. telling people when someone had done something bad is just a function of humans being together in one place. i really cant say how long it will last in its current, flawed form. its likely to be a very gradual shift as societal moods and apporoaches change with time.

# data[].attributes.body
Technically it is free speech they are not putting someone's life at risk or forcing people to believe them they are just talking.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's free speech until it offends. -Isabel

# data[].attributes.body
I've heard about teenagers getting 'cancelled' but I don't think that's a good word for it in this situation because the people getting 'cancelled' are actual criminals, like rapists.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it's here to stay. I think it's a good way to hold people accountable for what they did and give them a chance to redeem themselves. -Isabel

# data[].attributes.body
People petition, sometimes the social media platform takes action (ex. Twitter kicking Trump off). I believe it almost always starts with the audience.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it is free speech because everyone has the right to it, and you can't really stop them from saying anything

# data[].attributes.body
I hope legitimate and well-executed cancel culture is here to stay, but I'm sick of people using it incorrectly or treating it like a "fad." - Lucy

# data[].attributes.body
I think that it's a fad because people always end up forgetting who they cancelled and go back to that creator anyway.

It is here to stay its a very simple way for people to get their voices heard and take down things they dislike so people will keep using it.

Freedom of speech always has exceptions. Hate speech should not be freely allowed, and cancelling someone who has spoken hatefully gives repressed people the opportunity to speak freely from that power dynamic that is often prevalent with a problematic powerful person sharing harmful ideas in a community. - Lucy

this is just a separate note that I couldn't fit in anywhere else - cancel culture is an endlessly complicated thing, sometimes it's jk Rowling being held responsible for the harm she did to thousands of transgender kids who worshipped her. Sometimes it looks more muddy, a decade old tweet or words seemingly taken out of context. Personally, I prefer the term "accountability culture". because it captures the idea that everyone, no matter your status, must be held accountable. If someone messes up online, they should apologize, and if the people they have hurt believe them, then that's great! But sometimes it's jk Rowling, and she keeps going, keeps hurting and hurting and then we have to work to de-platform her before she can do more damage. It takes a thousand different shapes and circumstances, and is therefore a very large complex topic.

# data[].attributes.body
yes, it is free speech , but once it gets to the point of harm can it be considered that?

# data[].attributes.body
I think it will evolve, but I'm not sure what will happen overall.

There are tons of historical examples of cancel culture, from suspected communists being barred from career opportunities, and often publicly shamed in the 40's and 50's, to french women who slept with the germans having their heads shaved to be publicly humiliated after the end of WWII. "Cancel culture" is just a new term for the social mechanisms that we use to shame people for something they've done that we deem morally wrong, and it has always existed and will always exist as long as we have social norms.
The difference is that contrary to medieval times where cancel culture could manifest itself as an uprising, or public hanging, we have resorted to more peaceful methods like limiting their career opportunities

On social media people make posts, and callout posts to "cancel" certain people. This happens after someone does something that is deemed wrong, or usually offensive. When people get offended they make these posts to publicly criticize and denounce people.

ive seen a lot of people online get cancelled, and definitely at chs.

Cancel culture could definitely be considered free speech. Because a lot of people could argue that it is harmful, but the speaker is free to say  that they are just participating in free speech. They are free to say whatever they want.

Cancel culture has always been around in one way or another, so I think it is here to stay whether or not it continues in the same way it is currently present and active.
