“Does losing your job kill you? If not, you are missing the point.”

It kills your livelihood. It will make it hard for you to get a future job if they don't give you a good reference, especially if the industry is close-knit.

It puts your financial wellbeing of you and your family at risk.

You and others will probably think twice before dissenting otherwise you better dust off that resume and tap into those savings.

But I guess people aren't killing people so cancel culture is okay, is that your standard?
