Ok, but disagreeing is not what cancel culture is.

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.

People complaining on Twitter don't have the power to fire/remove anybody. All they can do is spread allegations. If those allegations are true and bad enough that your employers or associates want to disassociate themselves with you, that is your (or your associates') fault, not the whistleblowers'.

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

> People complaining on Twitter don't have the power to fire/remove anybody.

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!?

There you go again, complaining about my argument instead of refuting it.

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.

Showing my cards? What cards?

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.
