Hannity’s tweet cryptically read “Soap next?” but that was an allusion to the talk show host and disinformation purveyor’s focus on purportedly “canceled” toys, books, and products. In general, March 2021 involved a lot of bad faith lamentations and weaponized disinformation about “cancel culture,” including claims that the following have been targeted for cancellation:
Mr. Potato Head (purportedly made “gender neutral” due to offended people);
Dr. Seuss (supposedly “canceled” by President Biden himself over racially insensitive content in six specific books), and;
Peter Pan,
Dumbo).
Hannity published two tweets on March 9 2021 expressing offense at what he claimed was the “canceling” or “purging” of titles from Disney+. It follows that, “Soap next?” meant, to him, that after the “cancelations” of Mr. Potato Head, Dr. Seuss, and Disney classics in such a short span, the inclusivity brigade was subsequently coming for everybody’s bars
