The McCarthy error oops I meant era. The Witch Hunts.              During the Dubya Bush years many good people were "Cancelled." They       were labelled as "UnAmerican" or even more often as "Pro Terrorist."              The largest (by far) operator of radio stations, Clear Channel, staged       record burnings of politically unacceptable songs, and banned the       Indingo Girls for their protests against Dubya Bush and the invasion of       Iraq...              In many ways it was much worse than today.              You see, "Cancel Culture" doesn't belong to the left or the right. Both       sides own it and practice it at every conceivable opportunity. The       right wing doesn't hate Cancel Culture. No, conservatives are upset       because they're not the ones victimizing people right now.              Well there's Alec Baldwin...              But do you see? Nobody wants to end Cancel Culture, they simply       demand that they be the ones behind it.              That's why nothing gets better.              WHAT WOULD END CANCEL CULTURE FOR EVERYBODY?!?!?              That's the only question that matters.              It's pointless stopping the shrieking "Enbies" or the "TransRacials"       or any of the extremists, if the answer doesn't also stop neo       McCarthyists.                            -- --              https://rumble.com/vqwxtc-the-worst-of-watch-this-volume-ii.html              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
