I think in Most cases the cancel culture is not effective in ostracizing those it’s practitioners seeks to cancel from the larger society. In most cases, it serves mainly to narrow the group doing the canceling by widening the distance between itself and those it seeks to cancel. Therefore it tends to be the favorite resort of the short of sight, narrow of view, and autocratic in temperament, and who are overfixated on a single issue or view.
