Joe Rogan didnt cancel Carlos Mencia, he presented who Carlos Mencia really is and the audience made the decision to never go to his shows again.

Mencia didnt make an overly offensive joke, he was simply a thief and a fraud.

It's pretty offensive when you realize it's not an actual Mexican that focuses his whole routine around Mexican stereotypes. Lol

He was born in Honduras but his mom is Mexican, that makes him Mexican. Joe Rogan's grandparents were italian and Rogan says he's Italian but he was born in America. Is Joe Rogan pretending to be Italian like Mencia is pretending to be Mexican?

No, getting cancelled would be if he made a transphobic joke or something. This had nothing to do with the tastelessness of his material, it was the fact that he was stealing it from other comedians.

The right love when people get cancelled. As long as it's not someone they like.

Their problem is so called cancel culture is it seems to be used against them.

When someone makes a transphobic joke they don't get cancelled they get more popular then ever, and louder, and talked about more.

That isn't being cancelled unless that word's meaning changed to opposite of what it use to be.

The right claims anything negative being presented to you is cancelled. So in their logic, Mencia was indeed cancelled.

That said, cancel culture doesnt exist

Yeah, that's literally what being cancelled means. A celebrity does something that enough people dislike that they lose contracts, opportunities, and fans. "Cancelled" is just a different word for "boycotted" or "lost popularity."

Well thats a stupid, pointless word then.

Carlos Mencia, Bill Cosby and Gina Corano are 3 completely different situations but they were all cancelled the same?

I wont even use that word then, its meaningless, especially when this topic is trying to say ALT RIGHT JOE ROGAN HATES CANCEL CULTURE BUT CANCELLED SOMEONE, even though, to me, he isnt being a hypocrite here because the Mencia situation is different than He said a thing liberal twitter doesnt like.

Tons of awful bad faith takes on cancel culture ITT

Yes, Mencia was cancelled. Everyone is in favor of some forms of cancellation for some offenses and against it for other offenses. Literally everyone believes in cancel culture to some degree and saying "cancel culture isn't real" is a brain dead take.

Cancel culture is any widespread backlash a person receives or even just the threat of it controlling their actions.

It isn't all bad. Sometimes cancel culture is a very good thing. It depends on the person and what they did.

A lot of what gets people cancelled is whatever is "trending." So a social media algorithm is sometimes partially at fault.

When people rail against cancel culture, it's usually a specific part of it they don't like as opposed to the entirety of it.

How does having a broad definition make the word "cancelled" pointless?

The word basically means "immense backlash."

What word would you use instead?

Nowadays, people are rallied on twitter to "cancel" a person for petty reasons. "This guy said something rude 10+ years back, he needs to lose his job!!!". This is the what people are calling out cancel culture for, not for instances like Bill Cosby being accused by several dozen women of sexual assault or the the well accepted cardinal sin of plagiarism in the comedy field.

So how is that context of exposing behavior any different than any other "cancel culture?"

I swear this "cancel culture" bs has gotten to a point that certain people have turned into little Charmin soft damsels that cry "cancel culture" for anytime someone doesn't like their shitty stuff.

Yeah I agree. There are TONs of bad uses of cancel culture, but also some good ones. Most of what happens on Twitter is just people attacking each other for petty crap.

No not really.

You can easily criticize how the right tends to portray cancel culture while still doing so in good faith.

Why are people so damn lazy and need to resort to BS straw men to fight the "other?"

Being cancelled(for a person) is when immense public backlash causes you you to lose your job or career opportunities. The stuff people hate about that is other folks trying to cancel folks for (what the person complaining thinks) stupid reasons. But it does not mean people hating on you for stupid reasons.

But the complaints going on right now against against cancel culture weren't directed toward instances like the Cosby Case. It's for things far more petty and inconsequential, hence why I called out Tommy's post since he generalized it abstractly when the criticism is far more directed.
