Steve, based on a lot of time following these operations, I would offer that the “cancel culture” mechanism generally operates such that the “right” (which is performative) is weaponizing moral probity against the “left” (which is often also performative) to prompt them to use their own self-stated values against their own people. Al Franken is a good example. The goal is to find people on the left to force the left to cancel, and then also blame the left for cancelling people. It’s quite a good strategy.
