No under his definition any withdrawal of support from a public figure is cancelling.


Right, which is stupid because it still exists, nothing was "canceled."

Firing someone, or removing someone from a job over something they said would be canceling.

Boycotting =/= cancel.

hose people have a lot in common with the Peloton CEO "You should only have guests that represent my side"



Nope, the "enlightened centrist" once again has it wrong.

The "guest", in this case, was mocking pre-teen girls. Normal people with common sense recognize this behavior and find it abhorrent.

No, the key is when you post on social media about boycotting them and for what socially unacceptable reason.

No


Boom, you got it.

No need to think like a female and bring in a billion fringe thoughts to justify your wrongness.

Almost three pages now of everyone going back and forth with this sociopath. At some point this board just needs to ignore these idiots.

Take it up with Webster's if you wanna change the definition.

Then explain how Nick Sandmann, an unemployed college student, was "cancelled" as claimed during the Republican National Convention in 2020.

Trying to change what terms mean after the bud light stuff is just your way of coping with it.

Just admit you are part of cancel culture, meaning (as defined by Merriam-Webster's dictionary) the practice or tendency of engaging in mass canceling (see CANCEL entry 1 sense 1e (1e
: to withdraw one's support for (someone, such as a celebrity, or something, such as a company) publicly and especially on social media)) as a way of expressing disapproval and exerting social pressure.

And then move on with your life. If you can't be honest with yourself now that you know the definition of canceling, then maybe you should do some soul searching.

no, canceled means something very different than boycott.

If I try to get you banned, its cancelling. If I dont reply to your posts, its boycotting.

Not purchasing products =/= cancel.

Nope, still wrong.

Even under your generic definition, I would have had to support Pelaton to start with.

I see you've abandoned the definition you originally posted after I pointed out that canceling includes de-platforming and the removal of power.
