It’s less that people are letting cancel culture ruin their enjoyment of things, more that people are reasonably annoyed that someone who made something so beloved by many (and many in the lgbt community), is using her massive platform to actively spread transphobic rhetoric. Cancel culture isn’t real. Do you see jk Rowling and Dave Chappelle actually unable to be successful? They’ve both technically been “cancelled” but they’re still massively successful and have huge platforms. The only real side of cancel culture is the people who are harmed by the rhetoric these people are using their platform to spew.

It's not transphobic to say women are women.

It's a shame that even has to be said. Makeup, hair, nails, etc...all that outward presentation does not change your sex. Period.

They still have platforms because only a small portion of people actually give a shit about transphobia. The fact that trans people are a protected species actually gets right under a lot of peoples skin.
