Her cancel tradition principle is simply the newest concept she’s voiced on this subject. Earlier this week, she was addressing social media discourse at giant — suggesting customers (most likely Twitter ones) wanted to do a greater job at filtering fact from fiction earlier than leaping to conclusions.

This goes past individuals having full-blown debates about her determine, BTW — which continues to be a topic of dialog. Now, there appears to be speak about Lizzo’s music, and which teams she might or is probably not catering to … to not point out opinions on her race.
