hey ask me about purity culture
No
online purity culture doesn't actually encourage people to be kinder, do less harm, be less bigoted etc. it encourages people to perform these things, without actually making life any easier for minority members (and very often making things worse for us). additionally, "cancel culture" actively encourages frustrated & vulnerable young people to bully/harass members of their in-group just to feel like they can affect some sort of change in a world run mad. always be suspicious of any mindset that claims to promote "goodness" while breeding a culture of anger and punishment.
