100% true... but fundamentally, the mob didn't like his position against Archive.org so they dredged up situationally-irrelevant vaguely-questionable hot takes from 2011 so they could ignore everything he had to say. That is cancellation - "you are no longer a part of the sphere of discussion for reasons having nothing to do with the discussion." The fact that they didn't succeed in canceling him doesn't mean they didn't try. And I agree: Kate Wagner has much more to fear because she has made a career out of slagging on the work of others. All the does is piss on creatives. Her every word begs for reprisal, which is why there isn't a post on here without me slagging on her. She's like Dane Cook: once everyone has a chance to step back and see what she's adding to the discussion, they can't help but decide she isn't.Chuck Wendig got harassed by the twitter mob for a couple weeks but I don't think he's going to lose out on any book deals just because he wrote an essay where he admitted he likes porn.
