The cancel culture is a cancer in open source and cancellers are utter scumbags.

Not wanting to work with a racist asshole isn't cancel culture. It's common sense.

Also, this isn't a new fucking phenomenon. I remember when Ellen DeGeneres came out as gay (before everyone knew what an ass she was), and it nearly destroyed her career. Or when the Dixie Chicks dared to criticized George Bush and it did ruin their career. The same people complaining about cancel culture now we're the ones doing the cancelling then.
