‘Cancel culture’ isn’t new. Well, not entirely.

There’s no denying that the advent of smartphones and Twitter has played a huge part in online outrage. It’s also true that internet mobs behave differently from their off-world counterparts. But for the most part, ex-communicating people for violating social norms is part of human nature. The inevitability means it will be with us forever.

There is good news though. Cancel culture has happened so many times before that there are plenty of world examples to help you escape its clutches, and plenty of lessons to help understand how this hive-mind works. However, be warned. Just like evolutionary biology, cancel culture adapts. New words are coined, old arguments are given a makeover and sooner or later a new target is chosen. So, heed these lessons from humanity’s past if you don’t want to become a persona non grata. Unless you’re ready to become a martyr of course!

It’s time to learn how history works as we present ‘A Historical Guide to Surviving Cancel Culture’.
