Yeah totally agree. It's a good way to move forward and use it in an educational way, moreso than one to call out people for their outdated (and probably long changed) views.
I could not agree with this more - I got cancelled this week from a group for posting what i though was satire - meme on the interweb and I was branded a racist and cancelled (i think thats why) - had I been called -in I could see what the offence was and make sure not to repeat it - but how do you correct your behaviour when mob rule is the way - And if people knew me then they would know how far of the mark they were. I am glad I am a member of this vmo group - dialogue is how you solve issues not naming shaming and then cancelling - this is like the communist which hunt in the usa in the 50's - its now used as a weapon not helping grow tolerance at all. (my views are my own)
Censuring the past is pointless (old tv shows etc), it has happened. We need to deal with what is going on now.

Wait, a Rick Astley song?👀

Brilliant point about how damaging toxic positivity can be.
