Thumbs up Rapper 50 Cent says cancel culture's biggest target is straight men: '

Rapper 50 Cent says cancel culture's biggest target is straight men:
'There's no organization' to back up heterosexual males




Fiddy lamented the impact cancel culture has had on the lives of so many people who have worked hard to get where they are.

Wallenstein asked Jackson if he ever fears saying the wrong thing, getting serious backlash, and becoming a victim of cancel culture that ultimately destroys his business and brand.

Jackson replied that he doesn't believe he can be canceled because "hip-hop
culture loves things that are damaged. It loves people who are already
broken from experience." He said that a rapper won't get canceled unless he
does "something extremely bad," like "go to jail" or "shoot a girl."


And then he launched into a statement about the unfairness of cancel culture and how the biggest target is straight men.

Yeah... it's not like any gay people have EVER been affected by cancel culture or the metoo movement. It's only the poor heteros that are targeted, life must be so difficult when you're considered the norm and you never have to realistically worry about being attacked for your sexuality. However does 50 Cent cope?

As a straight guy myself I don't really get where straight men have it so bad when it comes to cancel culture.

I do believe that reverse sexism has become a bit of a stronghold in Hollywood in some of their productions, but in everyday society I think that we get it better than some groups.

"You a heterosexual male? Traditional choices? You like women?" the rapper asked. "If you say something about someone who chooses something different, there's organizations set up that start sending things around to get signatures and stuff," which lead to the targets getting canceled.

Jackson then wanted to know, "As a heterosexual male, who's going to send things around to tap signatures based on your feelings? There's no one. There's no organization."

"There's certain demographics that have been conditioned, because they've been taken advantage of in the earlier stages," he said. "They were once inferior, now they're superior, because we have no organization.

"The biggest target is just heterosexual males in general," the rapper continued.

White men are the most targeted but also the most likely to have it be completely unsuccessful (they bounce back easier and faster). Women are more negatively affected and ethnic minority women more than white women.

I read an example case where a black female "twitter cancelled" a white guy because she overheard him making a sexist joke at a conference. Both of them in the Silicon Valley tech industry. His employer got wind of it and fired him... "The Internet" (4chan, I believe) got hold of this story and harassed her company into firing her too.

Fast forward six months and someone was catching up with the aftermath. White guy was hired by another company within a week, black woman was completely unable to get another job in the industry and had to abandon her career.

Honestly none of it works out well for anyone. Just a bad idea all round.

50 says things for the sake of saying things these days.


It’s sad how two of my absolute Faves in my school days in Kanye and 50 have turned into complete fools as ice for older

I follow what he’s up to as I said I’m a huge fan. He’s always saying crazy stuff or arguing with/baiting people online. There are far too many examples out there, a simple google search will answer your question for you.

Considering he's black I feel like this man should have a bit more empathy for other marginalised groups.
