Applebaum talks about Twitter and cancel culture. Of course, her bemoaning of "judgement" on Twitter is odd, because she has used Twitter to throw mud at "Russian spy" and "Russian propaganda" tool Edward Snowden ( https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3Aanneapplebaum%20snowden&... ), "apologist for Milosevic" and Nobel laureate Peter Handke ( https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3Aanneapplebaum%20milosevi... ), "bizarre" Noam Chomsky ( https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3Aanneapplebaum%20chomsky&... ) etc.

Ok for her to judge and cancel on Twitter, not for the "mob" that judges her and her friends.
