Reply To: “Cancel culture” as a weapon of war

2scents,

“We cannot have it both ways, we cannot cancel companies for assisting or being contracted by Hitler and yet complain when companies are being pressured to cease doing business with or even in Russia.”

This is a really good point, and I agree with you. Let me clarify that in my OP and subsequent posts I am not meaning to argue against boycotts in general. I personally can’t think of any better ways to handle the current situation, given the peril to the world of direct confrontation between nuclear powers. What I intended to point out was how coordinated, rapid, and policed this boycott was from the outset and at a point in time when information was more scarce.
