It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

i'm not watching this and I don't care one bit about lindsay ellis, but you have to be an extremely bad faith actor imo to view her tweet as racist. Anyways this is proving once more you should never apologize for drama that twitter stirs up because it never offers anything of value. Also delete twitter because it's a garbage website.
They can't cancel you if you don't let them!
Honestly, I'd even go as far to say she hasn't been canceled at all. This video got 400k views in 4 hours, she clearly still has a platform - it's not like canceling has denied her access to making thinkpieces on youtube and I'm pretty sure she still has a NYT bestselling book and tons of patreon supporters. IMO complaining about "cancel culture" when you can still influence hundreds of thousands of people with a click is just a waste of time.
