1. Can you describe how you understand cancel culture?
2. Have you ever been cancelled?
3. Have you ever cancelled anyone? Why was it for? How did you feel in that moment about
cancelling that person? Do you feel the same way nowadays?
4. Can you think of famous people who have been cancelled and the reason for that? What is
your opinion about that "cancelation"? What about people from your environment?
5. Do you think people can change their mind? And what about their way of acting? Is there
any topic in particular which you believe is unmovable?
6. Picture yourself a couple of years ago and compare to your actual self-version. Have your
thoughts or actions changed much? In what way? What or who made you change them?
7. Do you mind being wrong about something? Do you welcome corrections or do you get
angry or offended when you receive them? Why?
8. Have you ever spoken up about any topic and have someone change their mind because of
that?
9. When you hear or read about something you do not agree with (either if it comes from a
friend or from an unknown person), what position do you take towards that? Do you cancel
people or you try to understand their point of view?
10. Do you think everyone should be allowed to say whatever they want? Even if it is violent to
a specific person or group of people? How should we treat each case?
11. What is your opinion about jails? Would you think of something better than that as a
solution for crimes? If not, is there any way in which they can be improved?
12. Have you heard testimonies about prisoners? Do you think jails can "reform" criminal
behaviour?
