One of our most popular stories this year. "The overall result of cancel culture is the cannibalisation of the left and the strengthening of the right."https://rabbitholemag.com/the-leftist-case-against-cancel-culture/?fbclid=IwAR2w4wpzd78NfrrIEZO7CokCRHiqdGJF9ooUAr2shl7MBLaaTByCDtARXao …

Can't concur with your reasoning here. To me, mob cancellation w/o due process is mob cancellation w/o due process. The comedian Ansari and the gamer who suicided were also accused of sexual assault.

Not to the same degree. Weinstein and Epstein's crimes (serial rape, sex trafficking) followed journo investigations and are on a whole other level to those of Ansari (not reading signals of discomfort during a date) et al. Spacey OTOH was exonerated (new film Gore out soon).

The cancel culture is nothing new, nor an exclusive feature of the left. Throughout history groups of all sorts were busy trying to cancel some other group (sometimes horrifically).

Agree w your first point but not 2nd. Current cancel culture (whether of Louie CK or Silverman or John Wayne) is a feature of Wokeness, which comes from the left. Don't see the equivalent coming from the right. Gillette isn't running anti-abortion ads--they *are* toxic masc ones.
