Companies these days are so scared of the twitter mob. Are they rightly so? As in, does this cancel culture actually hurt sales if you just ignore it? Of course, regardless, it's probably the right thing to do, as there's really no downside to sending a black lives matter email, or getting rid of one movie.

Has the Shitter mob ever actually achieved anything when it comes to taking down companies?

There are scummy companies all over the place (telecoms providers, Uber, etc) and despite the consistent bad press and dissatisfaction they're attracting I don't see them suffering much.

They haven't taken them down. What they've done is much worse: made them "woke"
