This is going to sound like a dumb question, but what's the difference? Getting cancelled isn't exactly an official status that is bestowed on people.
"The viewers are mad because of something you did or said, so we're cancelling your show on our network."
vs
"Hey everyone on this forum, let's all dox this person and send anonymous hate mail to their actual home."
[DUP!]

If I'm reading this right, he, and his family, got doxxed and threatened for the "I like Girls" video?? What in the actual fuck??
Also that video is a straight banger.
Seriously, all that over a 30s song that's not even offensive? We've successfully moved from snowflakes to frozen hydrogen territory.
Approaching absolute zero...
as a wannabe creator it's rather terrifying to see that even Jocat, one of the softest and most wholesome creators I've had the pleasure of watching - gets bullied out of doing what he loves. Where are those hate mobs coming from? what is their point?
I've thought about being a content creator for a while And I am 100% gonna be anonymous
Jocat gave me a lifetime ban like seven years ago when I sent a message in his twitch chat that didn't translate right. Sent an apology dm to him in hopes I could clear it up, but that seemed to make things worse. People just don't give each other the benefit of the doubt on the internet 😔
I can go on about it but I imagine there's not much interest, just wanted to vent.
