Cancel Culture

A controversial social trend characterized by use of electronic communication usually in the form social media; mob mentality; the acting of individuals not appointed by any government as accuser, judge, jury, and executioner regarding a perceived (often not actually illegal or thoroughly investigated) moral infraction; and deliberate use of shaming to damage to the victim's financial, psychological, and social well- being as punishment rather than usual forms of justice.

While cancel culture is seen by some to deliver justice to evil people that never received it and therefore protects their victims, others criticize it for lacking features of proper justice.
