Obama On Cancel Culture: 'Casting Stones' Is 'Not Activism'

The 58-year-old explained, “Like if I tweet or hashtag about how you didn’t do something right or used the wrong verb, then I can sit back and feel pretty good about myself. ‘Cause, ‘Man, you see how woke I was? I called you out’.”He closed with, “That’s not activism. That’s not bringing about change. If all you’re doing is casting stones, you’re probably not going to get that far. That’s easy to do.”Watch below:https://twitter.com/attn/status/1189349299118727168People on the right are loving his comments — considering they are always whining that “left” is trying to cancel their bigotry. One user wrote, “Right-leaning pundits are having a field day right now praising Obama (weird?). But they are missing the point here. A lot of people on the Left don’t actually favour cancel culture and callout culture. At best, they think people who do the above are well-intentioned but is mislead in their action.”Another user pointed out, “Being far left or far right or far center does not make you immune from cancelling Cancel culture is all over the place… the far right cancelled Obama before he even got out of the starting gate.”
