They're getting downvoted because it's an asinine statement - "I hate cancel culture but...".

So actually they don't hate it, they haven't even thought about it, and in this one instance when they did they concluded that people are right.

They're just stopping short of considering that view any further because then they'd be like those people who are definitely wrong. Because they are.
