Necessary cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly. Because they’re certainly not adding anything insightful to the narrative. And if this site really is trying to “cancel” him then stop using him for clickbait. I do feel like everyone needs to move on from this Colton shit. It’s the new “SJW”, trying to make every bit of criticism that comes someone’s way seem over the top or nit-picky. But at this point, whenever I see “cancel culture” I know what I’m about to read will more than likely be a bunch of excuse making and deflection and pointing fingers at others instead of any real conversation about the topic at hand. And the petition to get Netflix to cancel the show is just dumb. If you don’t want to have a real conversation or if you simply don’t give a shit about the complaints then just say you don’t care. I’m tired of people using whatever methods to deflect from uncomfortable conversations or to keep from admitting that they don’t think people should face any real consequences. If you don’t have any issue with anything Colton has said and done then just say that.
Not everyone is gonna support an admitted stalker who knowingly led a bunch of women on for money and attention and to display how “not ‘gay” he is, who probably has Conservative politics, and who only wanted to “come out” after he nabbed a televised interview, book deal and TV show centered around his coming out.Ĭomplaining about “cancel culture” is just as corny and ineffective as cancel culture itself. However, his “fans” need to stop trying to shame folks who don’t support him and claim everyone is jealous of him or whatever BS. “Reality” TV has always been and will continue to be a bunch of phony and exploitative mess driven by people who will do and say whatever for some clout, money and/or social validation.Īs far as Colton, I’m already over it. While sexuality is too individual and the gender/romantic/sexual/emotion/commitment spectrum are too wide and varied to base a reality show around a bunch of people’s supposed queerness (or their supposed” straightness” for that matter). Too much manipulation, exploitation, and using identities and sexuality for clout and money. Social media, reality TV and the porn industry are partly responsible for why I became against the way identity and sexual politics are currently used.
