Lizzo<\/strong> is starting the new year with a list of grievances about the state of social media — including the notion that “cancel culture” has been warped into something unrecognizable.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The singer has been expressing a lot of opinions lately about what she sees as total nonsense when it comes to what people focus on online — especially as it relates to her. On Sunday, though, she had a new thought … namely, that cancel culture itself is appropriation.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

This may be a random time to say this but it’s on my heart.. cancel culture is appropriation. <\/p>\n

There was real outrage from truly marginalized people and now it’s become trendy, misused and misdirected. <\/p>\n

I hope we can phase out of this & focus our outrage on the real problems.<\/p>\n

Here’s how Lizzo puts it … “There was real outrage from truly marginalized people and now it’s become trendy, misused and misdirected.” She adds, “I hope we can phase out of this & focus our outrage on the real problems.” In the comments, several people seem to agree.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Her cancel culture theory is just the latest idea she’s voiced on this issue. Earlier this week, she was addressing social media discourse at large — suggesting users (probably Twitter ones) needed to do a better job at filtering truth from fiction before jumping to conclusions.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

We need to talk about the epidemic of believing any and everything y’ see on social media\u2026<\/p>\n

This goes beyond people having full-blown debates about her figure, BTW — which continues to be a subject of conversation. Now, there seems to be talk about Lizzo’s music, and which groups she may or may not be catering to … not to mention opinions<\/strong><\/a> ten each race.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Speaking of fat-shaming, Lizzo is again tackling that head-on. It seems she’s receiving a bit of what Adele was subjected to when noticeably lost weight … people criticizing her for not “loving herself” as she was — this after she’d been mercilessly mocked for years when she was doing exactly that and championing body positivity. A lose-lose scenario, really.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
