WE NEED TO DO BETTER AS HUMANS
Today I take a break from writing about food to address this issue.
They say there is freedom of speech in the world and people are allowed to express who they are and what they stand for, but I’m afraid for celebrities that’s not true. We cancel them even before we hear their side of the story, no evidence just hear says from someone with a million followers on the internet and the entire world is on board crucifying another human.
These people are not our play toys that we can toss and throw away whenever is convenient. They are humans just like you and I, but because we are not in the public eye we don’t get to be judged as harshly as they do. Your friends give you a pass for the same mistakes the celebrities make but go online to crucify these celebrities.
How does the cancel culture work you ask? From what I have seen on the internet, it’s as simple as this; Wrong or right depends on who you ask and how woke they claim to be. One person is cancelled while another one is approved depending on which side they take.
If one celebrity does something that is considered wrong depending on who you ask e.g. Nancy does something and then another celebrity e.g. Stacy comes online and talks of how they
think Nancy was wrong and they do not Condone what Nancy did, the fans approve Stacy
and encourage people to go follow them, buy from their brands and support
everything they do while Nancy is cancelled, until Stacy does something that is considered wrong and is being cancelled and
then Ruth speaks on Stacy’s wrong, Ruth is approved and supported until Ruth
does something wrong and is ............
The cycle never ends, it’s like we are
in a jungle, the celebrities are the gazelles and we are the lions, one wrong
move from the gazelle and it becomes supper for the lions.
We are preaching about mental health and supporting people with depression while we are the ones putting some of them into these states.
We need to do better as a human race, we need to be emotionally, mentally and socially intelligent and know when it’s time to cancel and when it’s time to forgive and understand that even you could make such a mistake. Let’s go back to being humans with actual blood flowing in our veins.
PS: Celebrities this doesn’t give you a pass to do evil. YOU ALSO NEED TO DO BETTER. Don’t use another person’s pain and down fall as a climb up.
WE ALL NEED TO DO BETTER. NO ONE IS PERFECT
