The Cancel Culture era

Cancel Culture: The Good, The Bad, and Its Impact on Mental Health


  Think about how many times you have seen on the news, cancel this, and cancel that because it is discriminatory, or so called racist. 

When did this all start? It started a couple years ago when people thought they could battle racism and discrimination by taking away things that remind us of discrimination. 

We are still in the middle of this era, many conversations about what next shall be taken away are still happening, and there's two sides to it.

On one hand you have the people who think that racism and discrimination could be ended by taking away physical objects and then you have the people who think that the object, movies, or tv shows have nothing to do with it.

This cancel culture era has started with the littlest of things like canceling old movies that portray black people bad, or taking away tv shows, but when you do that you are taking away history. 

this as gotten worse as the extent of cancelling things that most of the population think it is not even discriminatory, for example changing the Aunt Jemima syrup logo. Many people had backlash for cancelling this and wondered why it's being taken away.

The problem is the people who are taking this away do not truly know if it discriminatory. They are basing it off of their own opinions and not this of the general population.
