American media since 2013 has “canceled culture not real” and “canceled culture is a good thing.” This week, he finally decided that it was terrible.
The only problem is that now they refer to “culture canceled”, in fact it is not so.
Conservative activist Charlie Kirk was murdered last week in Utah, who was done by someone who seems to be a hard-core leftist political fundamentalist. Immediately after shooting Kirk on a long distance in front of a huge crowd, not hundreds if thousands of everyday professionals, teachers to veterinarians, to nurses, to social media, to celebrate their death, using their real faces and names, to celebrate their death. Some post dances, other simple text. Some uploaded videos laughing about themselves.
For example, in Greenville, South Carolina, a teacher wrote on social media that “American [sic] Growing up today. There I said. “In Virginia, a teacher at Newport News Public School said,” I hope he was suffering through it. ,
In Florida’s Clay County, a primary teacher said that it is also believed to be a reference to President Trump, “It may not be obitary [we] Everyone was expecting to wake up, but this is a close to me. “At East Tennessee State University, two professors were flagged, one to write a” what you sow “and another to write” it’s not a tragedy. This is a win. ,
Other businesses are represented, I promise. But in education there was a strange excess of festive notes from people.
In response to victory, on some right, using easily available employment information, the workplaces of the celebrities contacted whether to ask whether the company’s policy and values are aligned. Many of those who celebrated Kirk’s death soon found themselves on administrative holidays or unemployed.
For our respected fourth assets, however, the real story is not a shocking number of those who are actually excited about the murder and openly say so, even without hiding behind the slope of oblivion. Instead, the real story is that these people should get themselves out of work after announcing their support for killing someone, with which they disagree.
“The Wright says that Charlie Kirk is a martyr for freedom of expression, but still people want people to lose their jobs for criticizing their rhetoric,” Read in the headline Bin peni lotamagazine.
Note that Rolling Stone published a long exposure in 2023, titled, “Why the canceled culture is good for democracy.”
“After the death of Orthodox activist Charlie Kirk,” NBC News Warned, “Teachers across the country have faced themselves rapidly ending or possible discipline after sharing opinions on social media.” “Sharing opinion” is a strange way to mark the moral option to glorify a murder. This is especially true when it comes from a network that published about a dozen stories and TV segments in 2014, hounding a vague hill staff. Obama criticized daughters lightly In a Facebook post.

More annoying about the only annoying self-inspired than only one thing is that these outlets, which are engaged in rescue and canceled culture, now want to redefine what it is. They do not get to do so, however.
But those of us who have some continuity on this issue, they can still give the difference between your opinion to be removed and being removed to be just a monster. When teachers step into class, they are moral examples for children. Someone who posts a selfie with caption “I <3 murdered" is unfit for that role.
The person’s firing is not canceling the culture – it is an administrative decision that it is not worth keeping the employees whose values are inconsistent with the company or school district. Even in our era of culture wars, “it is not good to enjoy or celebrate murder” has always been considered quite universal. This is long before the modern idea of ”cancellation of culture”.
To better understanding of “Culture Culture”, we can turn to BestoolDave portnoyThose who write, “I am canceled the culture, when people go out of their way to dig up old tweets, videos, etc., who are looking for dirt on someone who does not like to remove them.”
Correct.
If, for example, ABC suddenly had to fire Jimmy Kimmel, as online workers revived their skits from the 1990s, where they wore a “blackfase”, which would be an example of canceled culture. After that Kimmel lying about a political assassination, after harassing his network colleagues and possibly violating FCC regulations, serving as a host for a dying television format, was closed after lying about a political murder-it is almost, it is not canceling the culture. This is just a business.

The canceled culture “revive tweets” is a complete style of reporting, where journalists have excavated through the decade-old comments for tongue-in-laud comments and mildly aggressive comments, with the purpose of applying new standards of all speech and conduct, most of which were not considered at that time.
Canceled culture is also NBC Put in cold storage “community”. This criteria is “releasing a version of”French connection“Where the lines of dialogue have been quietly edited. The canceled culture has been scolding Disney for some films from earlier ages to scold” warnings “.
In the canceled culture, a retrospective of new rules is applied to older behavior, which is often arbitrary and often malicious. This often punishes people to do anything wrong, when ESPN pulled Asian American sports broadcaster Robert Lee By covering a football game Due to his name and equality between the famous Confederate General at the University of Virginia in 2017. ,Kirk talked some things to tell himself about that one,
This is not a cancellation when you lose your job because you tell the world that you support murder. This is just general knowledge. Nobody wants to be associated with anyone in that way.
It is encouraging that the media is now ready to accept that cancellation of culture is a real problem. But it works better if you really understand what it is.
