There's no holding back on twitter!
Disaproval, or disagreeing with a disaproval, is not cancel culture.If she wants something it's "integral" - if others do it for them it's "cancel culture".
However, the very idea that a casting choice is something that should be agreed with - as in: "would/should never be allowed" - suggests a consensus.
From that point of view I think Mrs. Lipman is indeed very guilty of her own little cancel culture.
Of course, it's difficult for any person to be 100% consistent all the time. "Allowing for leeway" doesn't hold up in an argument but maybe that is the problem: life has become an argument. Simply because we have the time and opportunity to argue and to tweet it.
Now, if everybody would just do as I say, and put Knots Landing on DVD and uncancel Dallas, then there would be no problem at all.
If that's good enough for me then it should be good enough for everybody. Dammit!
