I'm reading this in anticipation of a discussion that will take place soon. I definitely have my own opinions on cancel culture. I feel like this book didn't offer much information that was new to me, but I appreciate the questions being raised. As others have mentioned, I feel like it's very easy to agree with certain points in this book because they are described in the abstract, but anyone reading this is going to try to fit this framework into specific examples that they have experienced or witnessed, and it just might not fit. I will need to sit with this, I think.
