about

the real cancel culture is imperialist/colonialist capitalism

lyrics

Spoken:
People like to complain that Millennials “Cancel” everything from driving cars, getting married, diamonds, landlines, buying houses, cable, banks, golf, beer, and that's just things from the first page of a google search.
Many of those are patently not true. (beer, really?) Now many of the things on that list are because we just don't have money, but that's a different song.

it's true, we do absolutely cancel nazis, toxic people, and brands that don't have ethics. People are right to have boundaries around who they will and won't support, and they don't have to explain their decisions to you.

However this song is about the real cancel culture, and all the things the hypocrites decrying cancel culture have themselves tried to cancel.

Sung:
they cancel basic community needs,
like voting, and health care, or say, queer rights
they even cancel entire indigenous cultures

ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism

they cancel fun things that make people happy,
D&D, rock music, comics, even starbucks
hey the puritans are the ones who canceled christmas

ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism

Cancel culture is made up
so conservatives can pretend
they're speaking truth to power
when actually they're just awful

ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
ain't no cancel culture like colonialism
