Good luck on that one!
I have been unfairly cancelled many times throughout my life. It seems a part of life. Good TV and radio shows have been cancelled for poor ratings for many decades. Cancelling seems to be worse now. But who is cancelling whom? It happens on all sides. Sometimes for good reasons; sometimes not.
This is exactly my issue. "Cancellers" are more outraged by stupid racist jokes made 10 year ago than by very current violent, sexist and often racist porn industry.
I think cancelling the porn industry is a good idea. If the atheists my age want to cancel my religion I have no issue cancelling their porn and banning it.
The difference is that porn has unlimited consumption and isn't limited by finances or income. You can be on porn for 20 hours a day. Another difference is that any 10 year old with a phone can access porn easily. A 10 year old now can much more easily access porn than alcohol.
As a minority in my generation who's views have been persecuted I have no issue doing cancel culture to the other side when the other side would want me in prison for the things I think or say.
