It's reached the point where I now have a mental heuristic that anyone claiming "cancel culture" is the one in the wrong, and this heuristic is almost always right. It's really just a shorthand "How could I have known there would have been consequences for my terrible actions?!", with said actions typically being completely unrelated to any issues of speech policing (as we see here).
