It's helpful to create space by using words to explain what terms like 'cancel' means and do not mean. In context most people want to do good and improve. Nobody wants to feel 'canceled'. All alone the term has a negative connotation. More words are welcome.
The author has redefined "cancel culture" and then condemns people who disagree with what it really is as if what they disagree with is his watered down version. I am a translational scientist and researcher. Despite my credentials, I am constantly being canceled on social media for posting articles from MEDLINE indexed journals, because Facebook's "Fact-checkers" claim that what I am posting is false, partially false, hypothetical, etc. Last week they flagged a post for being "out of date" when I sourced a news article from 3 days prior! There is a theme regarding which of my posts are "canceled." ALL of them support the idea that ordinary people can be empowered to improve their immune health through lifestyle changes, improved diet, and adequate vitamin D intake, and that this makes them less likely to become ill. This has the subtle effect of undermining Big Pharma (the #1 funder of major media outlets and most government officials), and therefore is not allowed.
