Cancel Culture

[SerikoLee]

I have encountered people who encountered my series and they never read like more than 2 chapters and they try to cancel me.
In nearly every platform rather it is twitter or other platform.
The groups that try to cancel many anime and other series without giving it a chance and giving the a proper feedback are like cancer.
People in that try cancel anything without giving a chance for example reading half of a volume.
Not everyone will find what they like but giving constructive reviews and feedback is great but trying to cancel cause , cause they make something; you don't agree with is just wrong.
Just give a author a chance without attacking them please.
There is a video that talks about people trying to cancel a anime in the link.

When have they ever achieved anything? Don't waste your time. Japanese Anime will never be cancelled because of twitter

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Cancel culture is bad? Always has been.

 

[GodlyKamui]

Remember the meme "silence brand"? Well, the japanese have a version of their own of that meme. It is basically the same but with a cute anime girl shooting lasers and saying: "Silence, western twitter!"

And as I always tell SJW about loli characters, "She's not a child, she's simply a midget"

Anyway, cancel culture is just a pain in the butt to deal with... I simply don't bother wasting my time replying to their nonsense. Imaging having a life so empty that you have to focus on destroying the works of others to feel good with yourself and have the superior moral high ground.

out of curiosity, what is op being canceled about?

Honestly, this sort of stuff is a long time coming. If you are just noticing the culture war now that it is on your doorstep then you deserve what you get. Right wing dissidents have been talking about this for years now. Most people think it sounds crazy, but these people arent just going to sit around and do nothing after they cancel who they want. They will keep pushing further and further until only media that adheres to their ideology and worldview exists.

I don't have any social media accounts to avoid the toxicity of the internet.
But just know that, if you write something controversial, there will be people with pitchforks out of your house, basically.
There will also be people who love it, no matter how morally repugnant the authors' work is. *Not talking about this OP, I don't know their work.*
It is how the internet works now. Just ignore it and move on. If you give them the time of day, well, it will never stop.
And it will affect your mental health. Which is something you have to avoid at all costs.
After all, these people don't stop until you are in the dirt groveling. They don't care about your feelings.
So avoid interacting with them and let them scream and shout all they want.

Erm, it's not how it works with cancel culture. While you ignore them, they spam reports and do similar things to achieve their goal or ruining a person's life.

Yeah that was why I was sort of curious about what op meant by they were 'canceled'.

It's hard to be canceled unless you're basically famous to begin with.

Getting a lot of criticism or bad reviews fundamentally isn't 'being canceled'. Anyone and everyone on the internet will regularly get flamed. You have to start high and then get crazy people to ruin your life in order for it to be actual 'canceling' (IMO).

cancelled on what? Im surprised no one has bitched about ME yet either tbh. My main character Is a legit drug addict. Does coke, weed, everything. And IM till going strong. What are you writing that people wanna cancel you? I've seen truly fucked up shit being written here and other places without being threatened like that. Unless you are a professional writer, manga creator or youtube, i just don't see why people would bother

out of curiosity, what is op being canceled about?

right? I'm like, "who the fuck is this guy anyway?" I mean i cant imagine people wanting to cancel some random writing like...Xenomorph smut or something.

Exactly! Also, if you start off writing dramatic stuff it's basically impossible to be canceled for it because the expectation was there. Likewise, I also have accounts that I've written pretty bad stuff too, and I've never been 'canceled'.

For example, porn stars don't get canceled for being porn stars (everyone already expected that to begin with).

However, Donald Trump can get canceled for being involved in pornography.

Well, in that case. Wouldn't their work be essentially wrong? Like... I don't understand.
Why worry about reports unless your work is violating something. I am sure they can talk to the website admins if all the reports are false.
I am not part of social media and no one has ever reported me, so maybe my lack of experience in this sense is showing.
But again, I do not know what OP is being canceled in. Or do I know who they are. They might be just complaining about bad reviews.

Look, cancel culture isn't logical. If you cross the path of certain groups they will hunt you. And they will do anything to ruin your life. That's how it is. I don't know what op meant. As for social media. You don't need to be a part of social media. It's a one-sided thing. It's not about the violation of laws or rules either. It's about what certain groups view as acceptable or not. They look for things to cancel. Check the cancellation of certain celebrities who won COURTS and proved they are innocent. They didn't get their jobs back.

lol i would consider it a big flex if people wanted to cancel me. I'd be like Nuxtaku and DARE them to try. Go ahead, cancel me. You're just giving me more clout. I want that street cred, coz

 

[LoliGent]

If you want to know what happens when these SJW radicals succeed in taking over an industry, look no further than American comic books today. Complete ideology trash. It's awful, and the fact they expect people to not only read this garbage but to pay an exuberant amount clearly shows that they are out of touch with anything.

So it's no wonder they want to destroy anime. Manga is outselling comic books a thousand fold and they don't do this ideology nonsense. You really only need to go to YouTube and look up "manga vs comic books" and you'll see just how desperate these SJW's are trying to destroy the manga industry.

As for canceling people, it's unfortunately easy to do because Twitter doesn't care about you at all, they only care about the platform. If they make a big stink and Twitter feels the pressure, they'll remove your account irregardless of how long you've been on the platform. They just don't care. That's why I decided to hold no base on any social media platform that is popular. Instead, it should be used to drive traffic to your own personal space or a platform you trust. So when you get canceled, your community is still intact and you can simply just make a new Twitter account a week later when the dust settles and they won't care anyways.

I'm not going to let them win, I'm going to fight back!

I see... I guess I just can't understand people like that.
My brain can't compute, and I guess it is a good thing.
Thank you for explaining it to me though.~

Wrong. Cancel culture is logical. Every time they cancel something it doesn't just hurt that person. It leaves their media with a larger slice of the pie, advancing their ideology and agenda. These people literally want to kill you and brainwash everyone. They will never cancel a murderer. Think about that. They are after normal, regular people for their speech and ideas, not for any actions.

I meant that cancel culture isn't logical to a normal person, as there is such a thing as presumption of innocence. And normal people do keep this in mind. I know why they do this, and I can see the crooked logic behind their actions. So I partially agree with you. Partially, because the reasons you stated aren't the only ones that are true.

Well... to be completely technical, it is completely logical to everyone who participates in the canceling, even if it might seem illogical to you. It's also hard to say if you're in the majority or minority of some opinion.

Opinions flip all the time. The United States was giving weapons to Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden in the 80's. Everyone (in the US) thought Bin Laden was a good guy back then because he was fighting the soviets. But then 9/11 happened and all of the US hated him. Did that mean Bin Laden was 'canceled'?

The other thing is that the "presumption of innocence" is a legal routine that we consider fair, but is not necessarily logical or reflective of the facts of what actually happened.

For instance, pretty much 98% of everyone will pretty much universally agree that Jeffrey Epstein did in fact have an island full of underage sex slaves, but our legal system (which presumes innocent until proven guilty) has often resulted in very outcomes where Epstein has been acquitted in court numerous times. Generally speaking, having enough money and power can often result in powerful people buying their way out of court (or ridiculously light sentences like a few months of "house arrest" in a luxury mansion), and this has been a fact of the United States justice system pretty much since forever.

The 'canceling' of everyone closely associated with Epstein is therefore a logical reflection of what people perceive as what the US justice system was incapable of doing -- and people attempting to apply what they consider their own personal form of justice.

An important reminder that a 'not guilty' verdict in court =/= 'innocent'.

The US justice system is notoriously imperfect. It isn't based on science or rationality or explicit logic. Rather, we have a jury system where it's basically 12 jurors who give their subjective opinions whether the accused is guilty or not guilty. The jurors are (as a rule of thumb) vulnerable to appeals of emotion, and good lawyers learn to exploit that in order to obtain verdicts that suit their client's purposes. Also, if a majority of your jurors are racist (or biased against a particular race) it also means that the verdict will most likely also be racist (hence there were many cases in the early 20th century where black people accused of a crime were sentenced to it even though there was virtually no evidence and it was later proven that the entire story was fabricated).

If everyone everywhere gets only two chapters into your book, complains and then quits, maybe you should focus more on improving your writing and storytelling and less on "cancel culture." It's just criticism, and criticism isn't always constructive in and of itself. You have to learn to deal with it constructively.
