Does OCD make you afraid of getting 'canceled?'
What happens if I say or do the 'wrong thing'? Being canceled by culture refers to the somewhat more recent idea that if someone has said or done something offensive or perceived as insensitive or harmful in the past or present that it will be used against them and they will no longer be seen in a positive light. In other words, the idea that their worth and value could be diminished in an instant. The idea is that saying or doing one thing out of step might negate any good you have ever said or done.
