It’s attacking someone relentlessly, canceling their contracts, getting them fired, kicked out of institutions, debanked.
I’m not sure if you are pretending to not know that, or really just don’t know anything on the topic at all. But either way, it’s kind of showing your cards.
Employers don't just fire you because a Twitter mob told them to. They do it because they learned about your bad behavior and no longer have faith in you.
If you don't like being fired: - Don't do stuff your employers will find distasteful - Vote for candidates to end at-will employment and give stronger employee rights
So, start off with a blatant misdirection. They shouldn’t, but the evidence is this works.
> that is your (or your associates') fault, not the whistleblowers
Frame cancel culture as a noble effort, ok, go on…
> Don't do stuff your employers will find distasteful - Vote for candidates to end at-will employment and give stronger employee rights
Just don’t disagree with liberals and vote the way they want you to! SIMPLE SOLUTION! Why didn’t I think of that!?
It's not about liberals or conservatives, it's about ordinary people not liking things and spreading the word, ideally so people with the power to change things hear it. Conservatives cancel too, e.g. the Bud Light / Dylan Mulvaney boycott.
Things seem to escalate quite quickly now with no rationale. There seem to be no middle ground these days. My reference to cancel culture is that while it isn't there yet, Apple may have felt the need to apologize before it got there.
