A very thoughtful article. You say that there IS a valid discussion to be had about the widespread abuse of 'cancelling', and I hope you will write a follow-up article where you explore those issues as I do notice otherwise perfectly intelligent people acting like a braying mob any time anyone says anything deemed not 'woke' enough.

By all means, debate and educate why JK Rowling is wrong (I believe she is), but all the outraged shrieking and virtue-signalling by middle-class white people gets on my tits. It's like purse-lipped villagers tut-tutting because Mary wore lipstick to church.
