What Donald Glover's Tweets About Cancellation Really Mean

0
0

Donald Glover is pushing for creativity.

Actor, writer, musician, and rare social media user Donald Glover tweeted on May 11 about how the fear of getting canceled has resulted in a lack of risk-taking in storytelling and therefore a lot of boring TV shows and movies.

No, knee-jerk quote-tweeters, Glover is not the latest comedian to rail against cancel culture... he meant the very real fear of a television show getting canceled.

This isn't about Glover's desire to punch down with offensive material. It's about how creativity is stifled by—well, money. The tweets simply weren't threaded, and therefore easy to take out of context.

"Saw people on here havin a discussion about how tired they were of reviewing boring stuff (tv & film). We're getting boring stuff and not even experimental mistakes(?) because people are afraid of getting cancelled so they feel like they can only experiment w/ aesthetic.
(Also because some of em know theyre not that good)"
