Sure, that's in a sense a movement to discourage this.

But my point was that it is still a niche movement, in the sense that when you're acting as part of an internet mob or a cancel mob or any kind of social mob, you don't get much of a backlash for it (even if you're not just a cog, but a prominent part of one).

Whereas if you were being a jerk in some other way, you'd immediately be called on that.
