C

ancel culture, also called 'call-out culture', is a term used to describe the act of boycotting people, usually celebrities, who share controversial opinions or have done something in the past that people find offensive. The term 'cancel culture' came to prominence in recent years starting with the #MeToo movement, where celebrities and other public figures were being exposed as physical or sexual abusers. When a person gets canceled, other people stop supporting that person. With celebrities, this boycotting usually takes shape as people not seeing movies, television shows, or other entertainment featuring the canceled person.

Effects of Being Canceled

There are a wide range of effects that are caused by a person being canceled. These effects can range from a slight buzz on social media and the news cycle about what was said or done, to the person's career being ruined and whatever legacy they left behind, if any, being permanently tarnished.
