What people don't understand is that no man is an island. Therefore who are we to judge individually. We all have made mistakes at one point or the other in our lives,. The issue here while talking of Cancel Culture is that everyone as far as Social Media is concerned has their opinion to every matters arising. And sometimes, a group could force wrong opinions to spread so fast, depending how strong that group are or are valued.
I feel we need lots of understanding individually to be able to reason and analyse issues that are always out there in the Social Media because as many that are shamed through Cancel Culture sometimes make decisions they felt might favour them in one way or the other, but because we are not in the mind of that person, we see it the other way round, criticizing the person
I see Cancel Culture as an origin from Fan Base where some who are well known called the Influencers and Celebrities life is in the open that anything they do or moves they make are always in the light. This shows of how the Social Media has its advantages and disadvantages. The well known influencers got to where they are because of their fan base which has helped them to achieve lots of influences and in the other hands some influencers who has Haters are the one that suffers Cancel Culture the most,

For me as an individual I feel that the Social Media has made lots of its users to abuse its privilege. The power we have over Social media has made people to take laws into their hands, criticizing and shaming those whose lives are in the open either as influencers or celebrities which is a very wrong trend.
When we lost an ex BBN House -Mate populary known as Rico Swavey in an Auto Crash, lots of stories was in the media saying he lost his life because he keeps late night. While some are said he is a drunk. Even some group of guys were bent on capturing him inside the battered vehicle to quickly post it on the Social Media. Many other wrong comments were made against him. These are very bad moves for a dead person. This kind of comments and moves will definitely cause more heart break and anguish to his parents and family at large. I
In conclusion, it's not right to publicly sham people but its already late because the Media has giving many the privilege of having wrong opinions and false accusations without thinking and considering the harm they cause others. Cancel Culture needs to be arrested if there is a way to do it because its causing more harm than good.
