How Pro cancel culture is wrong
PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES, quote from nypost, "we are quick to cancel and not so quick to forgive or believe that people can learn from mistakes"
Seems good at first:
The entire premise behind this ideology is to #cancel/cut out/stop being friends with/stop working with people who allegedly have been perpetuating or engaging in problematic behaviors. At first glance, it kind of makes sense. (urge.org)
