Shows have been cancelled due to the "problematic" views of their creators and/or cast. YA books have been cancelled because people on twitter moan that the character is different race to the author. People get banned from social media for expressing their views.

Is there a description for this apart from cancel culture?

Look how Ricky Gervais and JK Rowling are suffering Liam! Their opportunities have completely dried up because some people on Twitter find their actions questionable!

Businesses choosing to no longer work with people is not cancel culture, neither is being banned from social media for breaking their rules, nobody gets banned for an opinion, people get banned for violating the rules they agreed to.

‘Cancel culture’ has been invented by people who aren’t happy with their opinions or their actions being challenged, the people who cry about being ‘cancelled’ have the loudest voices, why? Because they haven’t been cancelled, for most of them it gives them a bigger platform, ironically the loudest anti-‘cancel culture’ voices are the ones now calling to #defundthebbc because they don’t like what’s on there, it’s not a real things, people facing rebuttal or consequences for their actions or words is not a social construct, it’s real life and they just don’t like it.

There's consequences, and then there's consequences.

Count Dankula teaching his dog to lift a paw in the air is dumb and not particularly funny, but it's not arrest-worthy nor is it bad enough to warrant people getting him fired from normal jobs.

But if youtube decided to delete the vid and ban him, that's fine.

maybe younger people could give more feedback to the BBC what they like to see on there to be added

and then BBC can not just ask 75+ audiences for taxes but also younger target audience

more income, they got more money so probably then they can give shows a upgrade like strictly (bit more well known names for today's generation etc)

like that viewer ratings can also climb even more than there already is from 10 million to 15 million viewers for example

bring GBBO back to bbc, would also be a good move i mean i Always liked that on bbc, and even comic, sports relief specials for that had good celeb signings either


i honestly still like BBC myself
