When Cancel Culture Hits Home
#7
I think the secret to being uncancellable is to just not care what they think or do. If someone doesn't like what I say, well, they are entitled to their own opinions, same as I am. If they want to go toe to toe over it, I ain't hard to find. If they want to "cancel" me, fuck 'em. I don't care. I have to care what their opinion is before being "cancelled" will bother me, and their opinion just doesn't carry that much weight with me if all they're gonna do with it is try to eliminate someone else.

Same for employers. If one wants to fire me or not hire me to begin with over something I posted online (which has happened to me, by the way) then fuck them, too. I was already looking for a job when I ran into that one, so I can just keep looking, no harm, no foul. Why would I want to work for their uptight asses anyhow?

So, yeah, I think they can't "cancel" you unless you give a shit what they think to begin with.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
