Nah it doesnt just affect D list celebrities. I usually see locals trying to cancel other people in their area. I've met cliques that seem to pride themselves on harassing nobodies for minor offenses. If they don't like someone they will fish for any pretext to label them an abuser, doing gymnastics to stretch the meaning of that word to its absolute limits. The ones I met were crust punks, though I've been told its gotten bad in a lot of queer circles.

To me cancel culture is high school mean girl style conflict with a self righteous angle.
