What doesn't sit right with me is that a lot of this stuff is becoming very polarized. The same thing happened with Parler, when AWS et al just decided that it was too toxic to do business with and suspended the platform's infrastructure.

It seems to me that nobody on either side wants to tolerate freedom of speech. When you see something you don't like, the answer is tolerance, not "This person/thing/company" should go away and never come back. I'm just starting to see it far too often where something gets "cancelled" because it makes some subset of people uncomfortable. Inevitably the pendulum will swing the other way, and those who engage in this kind of activity aren't going to like the precedent they've set.
