[[YouTube]]r [[PewDiePie]] reviewed a video from the company ''Jubilee'' containing a debate over cancel culture, which included [[conservative]] music artist Joy Villa as an opponent to cancel culture. Though PewDiePie facetiously called the discussion, "the least productive thing I've ever seen," he was able to thoroughly discuss and analyze the various nuances in the topic of cancel culture. PewDiePie, who has had experiences with being "cancelled" himself, appreciated that bad people must face the consequences of their actions, especially in [[best of the public|the court of public opinion]], but ultimately condemned the overzealousness of cancel culture in harassing people and/or destroying their livelihoods without regard to [[due process]] (the idea that a person is innocent until proven guilty, which is non-existent within cancel culture). PewDiePie argued that cancel culture often goes "too far." He specifically named instances of several YouTubers being cancelled unfairly. He concluded that, though there are rational and legitimate reasons to support cancel culture, he personally opposes it and believes that it does more harm than good to society and culture.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKCrRH-1l_k</ref>
