That claim is much weaker. Didn't you say cancel culture isn't a very good term?

  "cancel culture" isn't a very good term because it can encompass different things, but I've established several times in this thread what I mean by it: harassment campaigns for the express purpose of having an employee terminated because they caused offense. I don't understand why you say this claim is weaker (weaker than what?).

    You claimed previously anyone can harass your employer into firing you if you offend them. The new claim is weaker. Cancel culture is also a bad term because it isn't a culture.

      Anyone can harass your employer into firing you if you offend them because we have at-will employment (or more precisely, because we don't legally protect one's employment from cancel culture). Those aren't rival claims... > Cancel culture is also a bad term because it isn't a culture. No argument here, but I'm going to keep using it for lack of a more precise, widely-agreed-upon term.
