Kevin Hart isn’t here for the criticism he has been receiving over his remarks about cancel culture.
The actor and comedian voiced his thoughts on his Twitter account. He said, “I got time today… The ‘He’s not funny’ slander is the best… this is for you. I have 3 stand-up comedy specials that fall in the top 10 highest-grossing comedy specials of all time… 2 of my specials are in the top 3 of all time.”
He went on to speak on his box office success and where he is in his career at the moment. See the entire thread below.

I have also turned my comedic talent into a place of business and branding and radio and other revenue streams….The hate/slander fuels me to do more.

Kevin Hart has previously spoken on his experiences with “cancel culture” especially after he stepped down from hosting the 2019 Oscars over old controversial tweets that resurfaced.
In a recent interview, he spoke on it and said, “If somebody has done something truly damaging then, absolutely, a consequence should be attached. But when you just talk about… nonsense? When you’re talking, ‘Someone said! They need to be taken [down]! Shut the f**k up! What are you talking about?”
What are your thoughts on this?
