EP 40: Jen Hamilton and Cancel Culture Apr 02, 2024

Show notes

With over 3.5 million followers, Jen Hamilton has become a beloved online personality and influencer. But even she is not immune from the pitfalls of social media. Jen Hamilton, joins Nurses Uncorked to discuss her recent departure (temporary) from social media and the damaging effects of cancel culture. Nurse Erica and Nurse Jessica share their personal experiences as victims of cancel culture.

We dive into the Hot Mess Express, fancy ladies (silkie chickens) and Shower Gate!

Cancel culture is defined (Merriam Webster) as the practice or tendency of engaging in mass canceling as a way of expressing disapproval, exerting social pressure and the mass withdrawal of support from public figures or celebrities who have done things that aren't socially accepted today. This practice of "canceling" or mass shaming often occurs on social media platforms. Cancel culture is supported as a tool to stop offensive and harmful behavior, while others find it problematic and toxic.
