Apparently there is a movement to Cancel Noelle Stevenson

Yup, you read that right. Super diversity champeen, Noelle Stevenson has to be cancelled because she's racist.


I know, right? Here's a summary of the whole issue:
Apparently, on a livestream related to the bastardization of She-Ra that she made, Noelle made a remark that was considered racist. Something about an internal joke.

So, this is a "joke" about Bow's brothers... Sow is the one that triggered people. To be fair, while it's a bit messed up, due to the implications of a "yes massa happy slave", it's rather tame in the scale of "racist things" that have been said. My issue is more with how "cancel culture" is bending over on itself because they don't know what to do.

Some want to go all the way and cancel her. Others are making excuses to NOT cancel her after her apology. Incredibly enough, despite my dislike of her, I don't believe that she should be "cancelled" for a racist joke.

No, I'm not defending racism. Is the joke tasteless, yes. But humor tends to be tasteless at times. Was it stupid to reference the joke in a livestream, yes. Everyone has made a remark that could be considered racist... does that make someone racist? It depends. Of it's a one-off thing, no. Now if it's repeated behavior, then one should be wary. If the behavior goes beyond words, then the person is totally a racist.

But back to Noelle. Making the joke is one thing, the drawing to explain it... yeah, it doesn't look good. Personally, I'm gonna chalk this up to white privilege and stupidity. Bit if she gets cancelled, it is what it is.

It bugs me that people had to scour for tweets from many years ago to cancel the dude playing Elongated Man on CW Flash, but with Noelle, they're looking for excuses to not cancel her. I'm not exactly a fan of cancel culture, but for those of you ehp do, then: do not discriminate with who you cancel. Everyone should be gauged the same way. No special treatment to some. Cancel all or Cancel none.  Anything else is hypocrisy.
