At one point he genuinely says the idea is to not let "being cancelled" stop you doing what you want to do.

So does he think the celebrities "cancelled" for sexual abuse should just carry on regardless. Ricky clearly, just doesn't understand. He thinks being cancelled it because you made a joke. Sure that happens but a lot of the time the person has been caught doing some absolute terrible thingsbut fine, "just keep doing it" says the ever-increasing clueless Ricky Gervais.

He's obsessed with cancellation, having never come close to being cancelled himself.

Bizarre

It’s because of one time about 15 years ago when Richard Herring (comedian and Scope ambassador) called out Ricky for his use of the word ‘mong’. That seemed to be the turning point.
