Not a bad read. For those who only want to know why Trump is mentioned, they claim you cannot cancel someone with no shame.
Only someone capable of self-reflection and growth can be cancelled, because they step back from the limelight in order to reassess things.
I don’t know I agree as part of canceling is deplatforming, but it’s an interesting viewpoint.

It's not just that, but that person's followers must be willing to have shame as well. Cancelling someone only works if you can break the spirit of those who might be willing to follow or associate with that person.
I don't hate Trump but this applies to him. The MAGA people will never be afraid to cling to him like a messiah. Similarly, ye fans will never be ashamed to associate with him either.

That’s a good point, thanks for adding it.
