“Your actions have consequences.” This is a statement often
heard in society. It is also very evident with the trend of Cancel
Culture, a consequence that is on the rise today. Cancel culture
is defined as the influence of canceling or boycotting a specific
aspect of culture. The one freedom many citizens take to heart
is their freedom of speech but today that freedom can get you
ostracised. Making your opinion known or acting in a way that is
deemed unprofessional, racist, or even harsh towards
individuals can be grounds for being canceled. Cancel culture is
a toxic attack on Americans' freedom of speech.
