Why They Cancel, Part Ii

...But worst is the true believers, the ones who buy into this crap, who spend their days lurking online, just seeking a place to attack. Not working, being productive, and not thinking with any depth, looking out for some ‘-istaphobe’ that they can harass until death. Seeking the slightest odd remark, or some strange off-color comment, then making it some huge problem, declaring loud, ‘That this must end!’ Trying to get people fired, or pushing them to suicide, calling them all the worst of names, and whipping up an online tide. Worst of all they think that they’re good, that cancelling is a moral act, can’t see their own intolerance, that what they claim they have, they lack. But normal people don’t do this, don’t live to bring others such pain, so why is it that they cancel? What is going on in their brain? The cold truth, they all get a buzz when they see a person torn up, there is so little in their lives that they could be proud of, or love, but all people want to feel great, it’s written in our DNA, and since some will not work for it then they must find another way. When they see that person cancelled, when that hit of power comes in, they feel good, feel like they matter, that somehow they’ve gotten a win. But destroying lives is evil, so they lie on what’s wrong or right, they tell themselves that what they do will somehow lead them to the light, the old ‘right side of history,’ utopia that never comes, if they can help us ‘progress’ there then who cares what happens to one? Breaking eggs to make an omelet, doing things they cannot take back, ‘saving the world’ while getting their buzz, what ego would dare give up that? And so they keep on canceling, their ego searching the next hit, some folks still ask why they do this, they’re evil because they like it. Cut them out of your life.
