> People learn from mistakes when there are consequences Oh please. If cancel culture were about learning from your mistakes we wouldn't haunt people for thing

  Kevin Spacey comes to mind. There is a thing called statute of limitations for things. Kevin Spacey probably shouldn't have sexually assaulted boys. Because the internet archives everything, no one looks at the date and think how long ago was this?

    Unfortunately, he was acting that way well into the 2010s; I had a number of friends in the London theatre scene and it was well known that a certain type of person (young, fit males) should avoid spending time with him alone.

      I only heard about the ones from the 1990s. Thanks for adding context. He’s still canceled yet does a creepy Christmas vid considering the history. I’m not defending him at all. More attacking the process of which those allegations were brought to light.

  This didn’t happen decades ago.

  It's possible to learn from other people's mistakes as well, I do believe that is happening at the moment. But anyway: if there are no negative consequences, I seriously doubt the perpetrator will even consider their action a mistake.
