This cancel culture thing where a few negative cancels all the good you could have done is really weird.
Voltaire is racist, Washington had slaves, this or that twiteroo said 10 years ago some kind of sorry thing, McAfee killed and frauded.
Look it's all kinda true and all kinda irrelevant. People are more than the 10% of the time they sinned. I sure have sinned, and I sure hope you'll still find me valuable as a human.

- dheera 5y agoThere's a big difference between cancelling someone for something offensive they said on Twitter (which I disagree with) and cancelling someone who committed murder and rape. Big, big difference.
- pcwalton 5y agoYes, one heinous act can outweigh all the good someone did. That's why we lock up murderers. That's not "cancel culture", it's every functioning justice system on earth.
