Controversy for Content?
Summary
- You can't be canceled if you keep creating and sharing content.
- Cancellation only happens when all platforms block you and you stop making content.
- Controversy can help you reach more people.
- I avoid discussing many controversies because I don't want to associate with them.
- It’s not worth my time to engage in controversial topics I don’t care about.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing these strategies based on the lessons on cancel culture and controversy:
Keep Creating and Sharing Content
A good way to stay relevant and resilient is to keep producing content. Even if you face pushback, keep sharing your message on various platforms. Consistency is key. If you stop, you allow others to dictate your relevance.
Utilize Multiple Platforms
Don't rely on one platform. Spread your presence across multiple channels—social media, blogs, podcasts, etc. This way, even if one platform blocks you, others can still carry your message. Use free tools to manage your content, like social media schedulers and free blogging platforms.
Leverage Controversy Wisely
Controversy can attract attention, but it is crucial to pick your battles. Engage in topics that align with your brand and values, but avoid those that don’t add value. Controversy for the sake of controversy is not worth the risk.
Focus on Authenticity
People appreciate genuine content. Share your thoughts on subjects you are passionate about. Authenticity builds trust and loyalty, which can make you harder to "cancel."
Prioritize Your Time
Not all controversies deserve your attention. Focus on what truly matters to you and your business. Avoid wasting time on debates that don't align with your goals or values.
By following these actionable steps, you can build a resilient, engaging, and authentic presence that withstands attempts to cancel you. Remember, the more you create and diversify your platforms, the harder it becomes for others to silence you.
