In Dumb People News, Bored Academics And Liberals Decide To Cancel Cancel Culture

I don’t get two things about this letter:
1) Why would a signatory care who else signed it? You either agree with its content or don’t

All I get from this is a bunch of folks that are mad they can no longer say or do whatever harmful shit they want without being called out on it.
