Cancel culture refers to the popular practice of withdrawing support for (canceling) public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive. It may be an innocuous word or tweet from years ago, that through the long memory of social media can resurface, leading to public group shaming of an individual.
Such shaming typically goes only one way, based on one’s politics. For others it’s just a matter of being caught in the stampede. A “Saturday Night Live” cast member, Shane Gillis, made a derogatory comment about Asians a few years ago and was fired for his comments.
Uber liberals however, like MSNBC’s Joy Reid, get a pass for past homophobic blog posts. Other woke liberals who toe the line on global warming and abortion also get a pass for racially insensitive behavior like wearing blackface. They weren’t singing ‘Mammy” with Al Jolson a century ago, but wearing blackface far more recently. Examples include Howard Stern, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and Virginia Governor Ralph (Coonman) Northam.
The cancel culture has morphed to cancelling America because of who it might offend. What happens when everything gets cancelled and we become a society described by letters and numbers, eliminating our rich history and traditions? The cancel culture is leading us to an Orwellian dystopic society, from America the Beautiful to The Hunger Games.
The self-appointed censors have found their voices after George Floyd’s death and the immediate end to COVID-19 threats, with protests and riots not only now condoned but actually encouraged. What are some of the casualties?

What happens? Don’t you know? Your country and your freedom are destroyed. Cancel culture is the malignant Left in action. Its the Left that must be confronted and destroyed.
Think of the last scene of “King Rat”.
What happens then? That’s impossible to really answer without fed-posting, which is an answer in and of itself. It’s not likely to be pretty.
I think it may help if we can start talking about tearing down all MLK statues and renaming all MLK streets because MLK was homophobic.
Give them a taste of their own medicine .... then, maybe, just maybe, it might open some eyes.
The Left is civilization’s kill switch.
It’s a self-destruct timer ticking away with the design of destroying the very civilization that allowed it to exist. It has happened throughout history, from the story of the Tower of Babel onward.
At some point we need to admit that universal suffrage was a failed experiment and end it ...

Works for me.

They’d ignore you and lock you away for even suggesting it. Don’t forget...it’s all about the utopian goal. The means to get there can be over looked completely -warts and all.
The worst part is that “Saint George” was FAR from being a saint.
He had a criminal record a mile long which included very serious events—had a cocktail of drugs in his system-—was passing counterfeit money , thereby defrauding a shopkeeper—was an absentee ‘baby daddy’—was drunk when cops tried to arrest him & he fought them-—and never seems to have had a decent life at any point of his life.
Who is to blame for his actions???
NO ONE forced George to keep having babies he didn’t support
No One forced George to ingest all those drugs
NO ONE forced George to be a drunk
NO ONE egged George on to fight with cops
GEORGE FLOYD is to blame for his actions.
HE AIN’T A SAINT——
Much of China's rich cultural heritage was lost because of that campaign during the Cultural Revolution.
“Peace to a muslim is when all the world submits to Islam and the factions have battled until only one faction survives. They are then the only allowable culture.”
Naaah, when there is only one faction left the battle will be between fRactions of the one faction.
Does looting arson and murder fit the category objectionable or offensive ?.
