Anyone who actually disappears from the public eye was never really in the public eye anyway. How many artists say that they’ve been canceled and are still in the public eye? The mainstreaming of the term “cancel culture” and any other related term (woke, social justice, etc, etc) has been greatly damaging. People parrot right wing talking points without even stopping to think what it all means.
I mean, being fair here idk if cancel culture 100% applies like for a “normal” celebrity when Kanye has both now cultivated a bigoted political fanbase but also is basically a mainstream lolcow that people are more interested in having in the spotlight to get entertainment from his outbursts and meltdowns rather than limit the harm he can do to others and himself.
To be clear: My main point is that this should not be the example case you use for if cancel culture is real or not.
I don’t ever want to hear about cancel culture again when this fucking guy still gets around.
