You don't agree with me, you're gone... cancel culture

Cancel culture means you might face consequences for using hate speech, being a perv, making racist jokes

"Cancel culture", the act of publicly shaming someone and actively "outing" someone's activities/beliefs/etc. to their employer/families/friends in an attempt to get them fired/divorced/unfriended is widely-known among certain groups of people - mainly internet trolls, IMO. I think it's becoming more widely known, because I heard a short story about it on _Marketplace_ on NPR/APM. I don't know if they use it on FOX, because I don't watch that POS propaganda generator.

Thanks everyone. Yes, I have heard it crop up more lately. I just wonder if the average Republican would be familar with it. Maybe they are.

I think it's a dumb term and they just want to be racist, homophobic, xenophobic, sexist, etc. without any consequences and they accuse us of the very things they do - trying to control people, our beliefs & thoughts, etc.

Badgers are short-legged omnivores in the families Mustelidae, and Mephitidae. Badgers are a polyphyletic grouping, and are not a natural taxonomic grouping: badgers are united by their squat bodies, adapted for fossorial activity. All belong to the caniform suborder of carnivoran mammals. Wikipedia

Huh? Good to know.

Cissie Graham is trying to hang a HALO over Trumps head ~ not mentioning that Trump was such a good friend of Epstien's she's an idiot .

Justin Beach, a Toronto-based freelance writer and political activist on cancel culture:

"Cancel culture has been around forever and conservatives used to love it. How many people lost their jobs or were denied employment because they were gay? How many people were disowned by their parents because they were gay or trans or because they chose a partner who was a different race, ethnicity or religion? How many people saw their careers ruined because of some (according to puritanical religious groups) moral failing, or because Joseph McCarthy decided they were commies. Conservatives LOVE cancel culture, they’re just pissed because morality has shifted and they don’t get to decide who gets canceled anymore. If you need proof just look at all the individuals and groups they’ve tried and failed to cancel in recent years - from Dolly Parton, Collin Kaepernick and the Dixie Chicks to Nike, the NFL, Disney and Nascar."

Odd thing: Melania, in referring to her "truth-telling " husband, forgot to mention all those times he cheated on her and lied about it.

Or maybe, each time he cheated, he came home and said "Honey, I just cheated on you." and that made him a "truth-teller" and it was all ok.

Just goes to show you: If you lie and cheat often enough, it gets hard to keep track.

If I was Melania, I'd be cheating like crazy. I mean, why not.

Trump trailing Biden in key swing states: poll...
 

August 26, 2020, 5:04 AM PDT....


While the president is trailing Biden in key swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, polling appears to be showing a tightening in those states also.

Is it any surprise that "folks" are being shit-scared if they are predisposed to being shit scared? To Trump this is 20 cans of Red Bull downed in 30 seconds.

Time for the Democratic party and local communities to step up forcefully, use their connections in the affected communities to marshal and organize the protests and use their own "vigilantes" to stop the vandalism. The grievances are very real but the response can be so very self defeating...time to harness response, not to deny grievance but to turn the anger into a productive force.

And Biden HAS to be up front on this...not just seen to be shaking his head in sad dismay.

Advice from a nice older white woman in Canada who thinks the police are there to help her cross the street.

Yes, exactly. As I said earlier, they accuse us of what they do and have done for a very long time. The Republican party is not the party of freedom. It is the party of intolerance.

****** wait for the debate between Donny Dolly Hands and Biden *****
then you will see Biden's strength ~ it is NOT over by far. the fact that all trump has going for him is his ignorant children proves who he really is. There is no sense for Biden to turn the convention into a verbal bashing ~ that's Trump's style. Biden knows how to deal with this bully. Silence is GOLDEN. just my personal opinion. :)))

i completely agree wih you! I can't wait to see them side by side so that people can see the stark difference between the two men and candidates. I think Biden will project strength and confidence and eat Trump for lunch. He will stay focused while Trump will be trying to play games and distract Biden but Joe won't fall for it.

Jill Biden was on MSNBC on the night befoe Biden gave his big speech. One thing she said that stood out to me is that he is feeling confident and will be a very confident president.

I hope you're right! I thought Hilary Clinton did an excellent job in her debates with that MF, and that the way he loomed and tried to physically intimidate her must have looked super creepy to all the women voters. Not to mention that he sounded exactly like the idiot that he is and was. I assumed she had it in the bag....

Thanks to Stephen Colbert Late Show....

I completely understand. I felt the exact same way you did about Clinton and Trump.

There are several things this time that are different. Mainly, people now have seen Trump's job performance and Biden doesn't have to deal with the massive and disgusting sexism that Clinton did along with the 40-year hit job on her.

I am confident but not taking anything for granted. I will be voting as early as possible - the beginning of October.

Hoorah, for Kamala Harris. She's got it right. Here is a link to the news report about the speech she will give tonight, ahead of the last day of the GOP Liars Convention.

And I quote Harris: "You see, at its most basic level, [TP] doesnt understand the Presidency. He thinks it's all about him. Well, it's not. It's about you," -- Kamala Harris.

Fox News’ Chris Wallace Trashes Trump’s ‘Surprisingly Flat’ RNC Speech Wallace and analyst Brit Hume said the president’s hour-plus speech went on far too long.

Wallace also called out the event’s failure to follow coronavirus safety guidelines. “The fact that there were 2,000 people in close quarters, on the South Lawn there with seemingly very few with masks, no social distancing, ignoring all of the public health recommendations,” he said.
