Frank Langella denounces cancel culture in open letter on his Netflix firing

Love to hear some thoughts on this.
Are we simply taking this way too far?

Here (in part) is what Langella said in his open letter: 

“Cancel culture is the antithesis of democracy. It inhibits conversation and debate. It limits our ability to listen, mediate, and exchange opposing views,” he said.

“This is not fair. This is not just. This is not American,” Langella wrote.

“Most tragically,” he said in his letter, “it annihilates moral judgment.”
