This is the most important part that needs to be understood:

Don’t back down. Don’t apologize. Don’t make clarifications, and don’t try to appease the mob. All of these will only be taken as concessions, and embolden the mob to demand more.

Also forgot to add, as he also writes: "Mock them mercilessly". This is the keypoint also.

Backing down never works, you have to mock them and attack them back.

Exactly. You can't negotiate with a mob. You can negotiate with individuals in the mob, but that is pointless because when you make concessions / compromises, the rest of the mob just smells blood.

And what if you’re wrong about the thing you’re refusing to back down from?

You should still follow these tactics, and make the changes quietly, since the mobs are seeking incommensurate punishment.

The problem is not being right or wrong, the problem is that if someone attacks you with a pitchfork, they are wrong for sure.

[OneGuy123]

And what if the other guy is wrong and he is attacking me and trying to get me fired regardless of the fact that he is wrong?

You fail to understand that these people cannot be reasoned with.

It doesn't matter if you are wrong or not: those people cannot be reasoned with so you do not really have a choice but to go on the offense regardless of the means you use.

Those people want you gone, fired. You will either do something about that in any way you can or you will lose your income.

There is no "rational" way fighting against someone like that. The person who is attacking already is irattational. Thus neither logic, nor common sense nor good will counter arguments will help you.

That person is like a rabid dog, once it sees you backing down it will only go in for the kill.

Stop thinking that you can "logic" or "talk" your way out.

An offense from your end, regardless if its rational or irrational is your only way of keeping your job.

Would you try to reason your way out when attacked by a mentally ill person? Obviously not, you'd know that there is no way of reasoning with someone whose world view is so warped and who is full of irrational hatred for someone who hasn't directly harmed him.

Stop thinking about logic and arguments, they will be your doom.

Going on a severe counterattack against them is your only option. The bully will only attack you harder if he sees you backing down.

But show the bully that you will punch back and he will lose his power. This might sound like a cliche but people severely underestimate the wisdom of this statement.

Also note that there is no "moral high ground" here. The person who is trying to make a stranger jobless obviously doesn't care if you or your family will starve. So the cancel culture proponent already ignored any an all morals since he obviously doesn't know your life situtation and is trying to cancel you anyway.

So really the only "moral" thing to do here is to destroy them back.

Ok you're here calling people dogs and saying that they are apparently now some kind of new human who is incapable of thinking?

And this is the reasonable balanced totally trying your best in society stance we're supposed to respect?

[Udik]

> you're here calling people dogs

No, he said "these people are like rabid dogs", which is not the same as "these people are dogs". In one case it's a simile, and the accent is on the compulsive aggression of a rabid dog. In the second case it's just an insult. Please don't stretch what other people said in order to make it sound as bad as possible.

Mutually assured destruction makes a comeback in the masses?
