Cancel culture is NOT supply and demand. In fact, it’s void of such forces. Dr. Seuss, the second highest earning dead “celebrity,” is canceled and it has nothing to do with the market. Don’t let the twisted Leftist narrative fool you. They are book burners.

Recently, /r/politics and other Leftisr circlejerks have been attempting to brand cancel culture as “supply and demand.” Not only is this a profound bastardization of the concept, it’s intentionally misleading. They’re trying to “own” capitalists with a “dose of their own medicine,” literally their words.

The problem? No market force, no significant decrease in demand, asked for actors like Gina Carano or authors like Dr. Seuss to be pulled from shelves. This is modern book burning. To call it “supply and demand” is absolutely ridiculous.
