Denzel Washington Dares to Defy Cancel Culture: ‘Who Cares?’

Denzel Washington is shaking things up with his unapologetic stance on cancel culture. In a recent interview, he posed the provocative question, “What does it mean to be canceled?” and, more importantly, answered it with a resounding “Who cares?” For Washington, public support isn’t the holy grail; it’s more about faith and following a higher moral ground rather than the latest social media trends. You have to appreciate an actor who’s not afraid to kick the status quo’s door down.

As he promoted his new film, Highest 2 Lowest, Washington didn’t just stop at cancel culture. He also shared his lack of enthusiasm for awards like the Oscars, stating, “I don’t do it for Oscars.” Sure, he’s got a couple on his shelf, but it sounds like he keeps them next to the dust bunnies. Denzel even threw shade at Cowboys owner Jerry Jones amid a contract dispute for linebacker Micah Parsons—talk about mixing business with pleasure!

So what do you think? Should celebrities like Denzel take a stand on social issues, or should they just stick to acting? Let’s hear your thoughts!
