Cancel culture is a competitive mechanism.
For the left it’s way to keep effective adversaries from rising.
For mediocrities on “right” it’s bread and butter mechanism to avoid competition from smarter, braver and more talented people.

In fact, precisely because the right is designed to be limited to weak, unaesthetic cognitive mediocrities who play second fiddle to cultural superiors on left, cancel culture on the right is an essential feature not just a hypocritical bug.
The system can tolerate smart attractive talented effective people on the left (though thanks to bio Leninism they’re in increasingly short supply)
The system cannot tolerate such people on the right, as it would collapse if smart talented effective people were allowed to rise

So on the right cancel culture is an essential feature, not simply a hypocritical bug.
