How bad is cancel culture

Colleen Ballinger, a family vlogger, is recently under fire because of some severe allegations her underage fan-made.

Adam Mcintyre has been a fan of Colleen since he was 13 and recently opened up about their relationship behind the scene for the last four years.

He uses to run a fan page and quickly became more than just her fan. In his video, he talked about how she came to him when she was having problems with her now ex-husband when Adam was only 13. She also went as far as sending minor lingerie as a joke.

Adam would give Colleen content ideas for tweets and things with the promise of becoming a social media intern. She would 'preapprove' the ideas before posting, and whenever she would get backlash, she would guilt-trip him into taking the blame. She would even gosht Adam, which made him feel as it was his fault for the backlash. Since the video was posted, people just concluded that Colleen is at fault. Colleen hasn't spoken on the situation and seems to be unbothered by the circumstances, so we don't know both sides.

I find this conversation very urgent since it involves a minor, but not many people seem to be talking about it since it isn't canceled culture worthy.

Adam would give him content Colleen would let him run her account and would guilty trip Adam when Colleen would get backlash for it even though she would have to approve of all ideas before posting.

I don't see why she'd leave a minor in charge of her social media. Minors cant be held accountable for something of this magnitude. Guess it took her getting canceled to realized how wring this is.
