And presumably society will impose consequences on them for such behavior.

"Cancel culture" is neither good nor bad, and it can be used for good or bad.
I could agree that arguments against certain applications of "cancel culture"
are valid, but arguing that "cancel culture" itself, or society's ability to
self-regulate and pressure its members into conformity, is bad is a
non-starter.
