Meryl Streep
Oprah Winfrey
Jimmy Page

[rasta-spouse]

Condorman

[mothman]

Attenborough.

[imitationleather]

Harvey Weinstein.

[chveik]

Spielberg

[thecuriousorange]

Liam Neeson, people seem to love him too much. He made some dismissive remarks about #metoo, calling it a witch hunt, but everyone was just like "Awwwww Liam Neeson".

I assume Elisabeth Moss is bulletproof. Nobody ever mentions that she's a Scientologist.

[Golden E. Pump]

Homer Simpson and family, apparently.

[Claude the Racecar Driving Rockstar Super Sleuth]

Jerry Lee Lewis. Everyone knows that he married his underage cousin, but nobody seems to care because apparently they like his one song that much.

[Sebastian Cobb]

Jerry Lee Lewis. Everyone knows that he married his underage cousin, but nobody seems to care because apparently they like his one song that much.

Chuck Berry carted someone over state lines as well but I'm not throwing any lp's in the skip.

Limmy

[Monsieur Verdoux]

David Bowie

Sue Barker
Prince Phillip

[Golden E. Pump]

Prince, thankfully.

[Sin Agog]

Alex Jones.  He'd just tell his audience that elites at Bohemian Grove resurrected a zombie J. Edgar Hoover from the grave in a voodoo ritual to plant false evidence against him. And they'd believe him.

[Monsieur Verdoux]

Limmy

He is pretty indestructible, isn't he? He's positioned himself so completely outside that world of discourse he'd have to do something pretty horrendous to actually lose credibility.

[Petey Pate]

John Lasseter.

[biggytitbo]

Alistair campbell and Tony Blair.

[phantom_power]

Donald Fucking Trump, no matter what he does
Boris Fucking Johnson, no matter what he does
Theresa Fucking May, not matter what she doesn't do

[Cuellar]

He is pretty indestructible, isn't he? He's positioned himself so completely outside that world of discourse he'd have to do something pretty horrendous to actually lose credibility.

Yeah, he's couched things so securely in irony that I don't think he could do anything (beyond noncing someone/murder etc.). He can tweet that thing about people laughing at Trump serving junk food being 'middle class leftie classism' or whatever knowing full well that lefties won't take it at face value (at least, lefties who are fans of his). And if they do they don't know him well enough for him to care about them 'cancelling' him.

The one thing he did tweet that I saw people genuinely getting annoyed about it in the replies, and people who might normally be on his side, was when he said something about Tommy Robinson being in prison and 'hoping nothing bad happens to him, good looking guy like him' - folks were going on about it being a 'lol gay rape' joke. He obviously didn't care though.

That's the key to a cancellation - the cancellee needs to be in real jeopardy. See Ru Paul and her trans related semi-cancellation - could have been devastating to her brand.

Limmy's like Barnardine in Measure for Measure - on  death row but doesn't give a fuck.

[NoSleep]

David Bowie

Despite the underage sex?

[phantom_power]

Everyone was doing it then. If you got Bowie you would have to #cancel the whole 70s

His brand.

[Cuellar]

Whatevs

[phantom_power]

His brand.

David Cancel

[Monsieur Verdoux]

Despite the underage sex?

that's what i was referring to, people talked about it around the time that he died and the consensus seemed to be "nah, just let us have this one"
