What I dislike most about #cancelculture is the fact that the people doing it know the power of boycotting, but they mostly use it to #boycott what people say or believe in.
Governments and #BigTech are destroying privacy, a critical pillar of democracy, with the goal of doing the same thing that cancel culture is about.
That is, controlling what people are allowed to say (dissent/freedom of speech) and controlling what people believe in (culture/family).
