Molly Ringwald has joined the chorus of voices speaking out against cancel culture. The actress referred to cancel culture as "unsustainable" while echoing the concerns of many who believe that the movement has gone too far in its efforts to hold individuals and organizations accountable for their actions. The 55-year-old recently revealed her perceptions about the #MeToo movement and sexual harassment in the entertainment industry in an interview with The Guardian. “I don’t think a Harvey Weinstein situation could exist now. But, again, a lot of people have gotten swept up in ‘cancellation,' and I worry about that,” Ringwald stated, “It’s unsustainable, in a way. Some people have been unfairly canceled, and they don’t belong in the same category as somebody like Harvey Weinstein."
