Cancellation Blunted

A short while back, I very unfortunately -- though not for the first time in my life -- suffered a cancellation attempt. It was an attempt from "the right" -- a group of people, in this case a cell inside a larger organisation -- to cancel me as an author. I tackled them directly, one by one. This has proved to be a good approach. The attack on me has been very much blunted, if not neutralised. OBSERVATION: It was a surprise to me, though, that this attack came from the right. Now I know. Both left and right are doing this. See, for instance, The Cancel Culture of the Right.
