Lol. That’s what it means to be “cancelled”? C’mon now. That’s a fad! Trump made it all the rage to anger the left. You bought into it. Maybe it just feels different now that Trump lost it for the republicans.

Then what is it? I don’t see the difference.
No. That’s called tribal politics and there’s really not any other kind going on in the US these days.

nowhere special
Tribal politics? Sounds kind of racist.
No. I think he’ll be fired. After that and a lot of crying about being “cancelled”, some network somewhere will give him a “behind the scenes” position where his diabetic rants won’t offend the public at large.
That’s because you’re old and gray. But you get it. You’ve spent the last 4 years with your party of choice in power and you’ve done well to toe the party line. It hasn’t changed since November 3rd.

I’m waiting for an explanation. I’ve been quite clear for months that i don’t believe the BS. The closest I’ve seen is someone saying that cancel culture is not the same as boycotting but no explanation beyond that.

Media members outraged after cancel culture comes for Alexi McCammond: 'Where the hell are we as an industry'
Media members across the political spectrum expressed outrage Thursday after Alexi McCammond was forced out as Teen Vogue's editor-in-chief over backlash to tweets she posted as a teenager.
I really detest the cancel culture, especially if someone says or does something stupid when they’re young, but I can’t help but wonder if the left-leaning media that Is bemoaning her “cancelation” would speak up so loudly if she was White? I would bet a week’s paycheck they wouldn’t. If anything, they’d be slamming her for being racist and calling for her firing.
Time to be honest. Let’s say the left leaning media wouldn’t say a thing. If she was white, would the right leaning media say something? This idea that American media is so overwhelmingly left leaning is odd. What about Newsmax, Fox, OAN, NY POST and others.Media members outraged after cancel culture comes for Alexi McCammond: 'Where the hell are we as an industry'

Alexi is a hottie though.

The rules are that the rules are always changing, are retroactive, there is no trial, and there is no redemption.
Justifiable punishments include murder, assault, property damage, harassment, and loss of income. This also includes the perpetrator's family and friends.
The only people I can think of who got a pass (for of all things, blackface) is Trudeau and Kimmel. I was looking forward to those two being drawn and quartered. Alas, my popcorn got cold. I remain confused and severely disappointed.
You "understand the rules." But do you feel safe?
Those are two VERY different things.

the rules are being redefined daily to keep the race baiters in business.
people are losing their jobs over the new rules for things they did under the old rules.

yes there are a few right wing sources . Yes they do report on cancel culture and the freedom of speech issues something you libs used to hold near and dear.
I'm watching Fox report on it right now. the story they are reporting is very sympathetic to Alexi and very critical of the cancel culture insanity that fired her.
