Excellent point! Before I expand on this Biblical Truth, let me point out the OP is trying to juxtapose the evil of cancel culture with SOMETHING. In this format, I'm hard pressed to find anything better than "forgiveness," especially while it's still part of the known vocabulary but in danger of being lost.
OP is very good with receiving constructive criticism, so if anybody thinks of something better that'd be great.
Now, to summarize the totality of Scripture on what u/Juicebusters mentioned:
there are 12 Divine properties revealed to us. The first glimpse of the counterfeiter, satan, we're told he only knows about 9. There are 9 fruits of the Spirit listed, as well as 9 gifts of the Spirit. It is generally known that these lists don't try to list everything, but give examples.
So satan has a counterfeit for all 9 fruits of the Spirit listed. Fake love? Cardi B is a caricature.
Ephesians 6 breastplate of righteousness is something most gloss over and never explore. It's incredibly complex! The whole picture is based on the OT high Priest. The 3 Divine properties satan has no counterfeit for (Angels can't even look into) are all on the west side of the Tabernacle in the wilderness, by the Holy of Holies, which depicts the very throne of God. Forgiveness is one. Resurrection is one. The double portion of God's Anointing is another.
As always, Jesus is all of this! And He is our great high Priest, who lives forever to make intercession for us. As He is, SO ARE WE in this world. And in those (these) days, those that know the Lord shall be strong and do exploits.
Hmmmm ...
For those familiar with their bibles it's really worth noting that Christianity's enemy is not primarily some sort of evil foreign religion or a Ghengis Khan but what is most warned about over and over: Counterfeit Christ.
The 'Anti-Christ' isn't the 'Opposite' so much as a 'Fake Christ'.
The Early Church was in its worst battle - not against Roman soldier as much as 'Gnostics', who had a kind of parallel but warped (but similar sounding) gospel and teachings and were happy to slide into church pews and fit right in.
To the French Revolution and where we get the term and modern 'Leftists' what were they trying to do: Replace Christianity - not with 'atheism' - but with Pseudo-Pagan parallels. (a lot of weird shit really but a kind of pseudo-pre-christian fantasy occult pagany nonsense).
But it does seem like they get stuck on 'Forgiveness' (as in the grace concept of Christianity) and so it's not surprising that without it they have returned to pre-Christian concepts of 'Tribal Curses' and 'Blood Libel', genetic debts, racial categories and Identity groups who never have 'forgiveness' but only tallying their guilt or victim points and then trying to make them all have even point tallies.
They really have to do that because without Christian forgiveness.. well that IS what people did and how they deal with things without Christianity and before Christianity.
So the Left just goes back 2000 years to Blood Debts, Tribal Sin Counting and genealogy.
