Cancel culture has been a huge discussion in today’s society. It seems like everyone is getting ‘canceled’ these days. Some people say this culture can be a very toxic thing, while others say it’s a good way for people to learn from their mistakes.

The most recent person who has been ‘canceled’ is Morgan Wallen over saying a racial slur and TMZ aired a recording of the whole conversation.

“I think Morgan Wallen deserved to get ‘canceled,’ but I think people are taking it a little too far, people are sending him death threats and such,” sophomore Thomas Saterlee said.

Some people think it’s a good way for people to learn from their consequences that people are bashing them.

“I think that if you have done something or said something inappropriate and it gets out, you should take the consequences and backlash because it will help you learn to not do it in the future,” senior Cody Penwell said.

While others think if you say something offensive or do something offensive you should apologize and move on.

“People get offended so easily nowadays and everyone attacks one person for something with death threats, which is completely unnecessary and too far in my opinion,” junior Maddy Toombs said. Cancel culture can be seen as toxic but also could be a very proactive thing. It could change someone for the better but also could hurt someone’s mental wellness and cause them to fall into depression.

“I really can’t speak on the subject because I honestly think sometimes it could change the way people act and sometimes people take it way way too far,” senior Celsea Colley said.
