It would be wise for critics of cancel culture to avoid comparisons to the NKVD and other actual police states. While rhetorically satisfying it's always going to ring false to anyone who knows the history and invite the charge of exaggeration and hysteria. Unless the subject of this article's tortured body has been buried in an unmarked grave sans teeth and fingernails, all of her family members and associates have been dispatched to a siberian labor camp for ten years and Eliza is about to join them for the crime of mentioning the subject's name in print, the NKVD would actually consider this a pretty disappointing unpersonning.

Have you talked to a TRA? They're waiting for the opportunity/excuse to kill people. Mention any "TERF" and their tone will quickly turn homicidal.
So are you seriously trying to claim that social media TRAs are as bad as the most brutal police state in history?
