But Coates is wrong when he echoes this ascendant view: "Until recently, cancellation flowed exclusively downward, from the powerful to the powerless." The idea is that the power dynamics are now reversed and that's what really upsets people. But the quoted assertion is wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

I've previously written that Kaepernick's protest was a patriotic defense of core liberties https://t.co/iR4EQKDn52 And I criticized Trump for bragging about ostensibly costing him his job https://t.co/C0VlgY8K9A So Coates & I agree on a lot, including calling that "cancellation" — PolitiTweet.org

Defining cancellation as Coates seems to, history is rife with examples of cancellation flowing from the relatively powerless to the very powerful. There are big examples, like the French revolution, and small ones, like women's groups that closed U.S. saloons w/ public shaming — PolitiTweet.org
