I don't think that distinction really matters, twitter dog-piling can arguably be considered an anologous form of political mob violence.

- lapcat 4y ago> twitter dog-piling can arguably be considered an anologous form of political mob violence. I would argue with that. :-) In general, the rhetoric over "cancel culture" feels very over the top to me. There's a level of fearmongering and victimhood that's not warranted by the empirical facts, much like whenever it's claimed that there's a "crime wave". I'm not saying there's no crime, or no cancellation, just that I don't see totalitarianism as a natural next step from Twitter.
