People became too trigger-happy, and there's this ever-changing baseline and being left in the wrong side of it immediately kills your career.
I'm a cis male who's also a proud feminist, but I also think that I can get myself easily cancelled if I'm not formulating my opinions very carefully.
Heck, even the things I just wrote here can be enough to trigger a lot of people!
I'm totally ok if people will argue with each other, or use their free-speech to protest the things they see wrong. But no, what's forming today is an organized "shut these people up or we'll kill your business" angry mob.
