It's true though. How is a bunch of losers on social media whining about a video game any different than something like fundamentalist Christians protesting heavy metal concerts in the '80s? I don't think anyone would argue that metal bands were "cancelled" by a mob. The people who enjoyed it still enjoyed it, and the whiners were basically inconsequential and just made themselves look like idiots.
The only real examples of people/things getting cancelled due to something they say or do are when the fans or people who buy the product react negatively. And that has always happened, which is why anyone with good PR has always stayed away from issues that are controversial with their fans/customers.
