Cancelling a person is a violent, extremely harsh act, in many ways akin to murder. Lives are destroyed, long productive careers ended without mercy. People isolated, much of how they have come to define themselves over decades, publicly ripped from them without mercy.
Human history is riff with campaigns of destruction, war, and murder as our collective psychopathy has marched forward through the ages.
The cancel culture then is really just another take on intolerance, hate, and murder.
Nothing new - just less actual blood.
