    Is there a name for giving people a platform by attempting to cancel them?

    Just how many people did firing her prevent her from reaching? I for one follow everything star wars but would never have seen her tweets if not for this drama.

      Disney doesn’t want to ‘cancel’ her, they just don’t want to be associated with her.
      They don’t care whom she reaches as long as people don’t think they endorse her views.

      She cancelled herself by playing alt-right culture warrior games. In the real adult world, you have to do what your boss and contract say or else you get fired.

      If only the goal was to kill misinformation. No, I mean, the goal was to protect Disney’s reputation. “Cancelation” is capitalism.
