Can anyone explain where this getting fired culture of America comes from, do people see work there as a privilege? It's difficult to understand, even people that I despise still have a right to work in my eyes.

I think it’s mostly a result of how easy it is to fire people in much of the US. Is costs many companies (especially big ones) almost nothing to just get rid of a pariah and people know this, so “fire them” has become the easiest way of punishing someone we don’t like. Most people don’t stop to think how much that could ruin someone’s life, so they just go along with the ones who do want to ruin a person’s life.

Also, most fans of "cancel culture" are university students, who don't have an idea what it means to try to pay your mortgage and feed your family. For them it's just a game. A cruel game, but kids often are cruel.

It's almost as if the Post wanted a reason to fire her and fabricated a reason this way.

Because journalists are parasites and need to burn.

Please don't do this here. Maybe you don't owe journalists better, but you owe this community better if you're posting to it.
