TSR reveals that the former President of the US, Barack Obama, recently called out this trend.
TSR cites info from Huffington Post and reveals that ‘while speaking at the Obama Foundation Summit in Chicago earlier this week, Barack Obama didn’t hold back his feelings on cancel culture and Twitter outrage, emphasizing that they are “not activism” and also pushed for Americans to abandon ideological purity tests when it comes to politics.’
