cancel-worthy
Meriting public shunning
Cancel-worthy describes behavior or statements deemed serious enough to warrant canceling someone—publicly shaming them and withdrawing support for their career or platform.
The term emerged from cancel culture discourse and can be used earnestly or mockingly: Was that tweet really cancel-worthy?
These days, everything seems cancel-worthy to someone.
