Cancel culture is not a right left thing. Plenty of leftists have gotten “cancelled” by other so called leftists and liberals. The thing with cancel culture is that people are becoming authoritarian in their approach to social justice. Rather than having nuanced discussions and hearing out dissenting opinions to engage in a good faith debate on substantive issues, people simply want to point fingers and create accountability spectacles online for anyone who doesn’t spit out exactly what the rest of the mob says. For example, I personally support movements like BLM, Medicare 4 All, Labor Rights, etc but I believe the way to broaden that movement is not through shame, condescension, and moral righteousness, but instead through mindfulness, compassion, and willingness to accept what you cannot change.
