Once again you're not being truthful. "The right" tried to cancel Elen in 1997 when she came out as gay, They tried to cancel The Chicks, formerly the Dixie Chicks, all the way back in 2003. They tried to cancel the name French Fries around the same time. LOL Trump's Cult of Ignorance tried to cancel the NFL in 2016, Nike shortly after that, Dicks Sporting Goods in 2018, etc.

McCarthism was cancel culture

Wonder what new bullshit thing liberals will come up with to take attention away from how they have fucked up the country since Biden has been in office.

Drag has been around since way before my time. The vast majority don’t give a flip.

The issue is liberals blowing all these liberal ploys out of proportion to cause discord.
Again most could care less. Do your thing and leave the rest of us out of it.

"Liberals" are not the ones causing discord in this instance. It wouldn't be an issue if the RWN didn't try to the cancel the drag brunch. The restaurant "did it's thing" and didn't try to include anyone who didn't want to go. Then, instead of just not attending a brunch that they weren't into, these RWN publicly tried to hurt the business.

My New Study Proves It: Cancel Culture Is Much Worse on the Left | Opinion

The myth that the right cancels as much as the left

While mainstream America may associate cancel culture with woke progressives exiling those who cross lines newly drawn in the sand, left-leaning commentators want to let you know it’s as much a problem if not worse on the right. The facts are not on their side.

.
.
.
But in the real world today, the actual threat of being canceled is far stronger coming from the left than the right.

It is left-of-liberal progressives and their obsession with hurt feelings who have weaponized language to shrink the parameters of acceptable speech, and who insist that non-prescribed words amount to violence against “oppressed” groups.

And it is disagreement on subjects most important to them, like race and gender, that most often end in canceling.

Once your lie about who started it was dispelled, you moved the goal posts to who does it more. LOL

When you think about all the shit the religious right has tried to cancel over the years, you're probably still being dishonest. I remember when I was a kid they were trying to cancel explicit rap music.

The Cult leader even said that he was trying to cancel all Muslims from entering the country. I'm well aware that the courts and the constitution stopped him from doing it, but his exact words were "Donald Trump is calling for a total and complete shut down of Muslims entering the country..."

Nothing was dispelled. But it is interesting to see you so bent out of shape now about cancel culture. Thanks for proving my point that leftists whine about cancel culture now because they can't handle it being done to them and their pet causes

Your notion that "the left"invented cancel culture and the RWN have only recently adopted it has absolutely been dispelled. The RWN have been deploying canceling strategies since at least the 1980s, though I suspect that it's been much longer than that.



"Bent out of shape" is an interesting way to describe laughing at the hypocrisy of these folks.

[Jacuzzme]

Forget Muslims, we need to slam the door shut to ALL immigration until we get our own house in order. We have 20+ vets committing suicide EVERY. FUCKING. DAY. and who knows how many addicted. One out of every 50 kids is now diagnosed with autism, not to mention Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, and on and on. Altogether over 10% of kids are considered as having a disability requiring an IEP.

Let’s help our people. Until then foreigners can lobby their own governments to do the same, rather than coming here and depleting much needed resources.

[HDGristle]

Those resources aren't going to go to vets. And you'll find some interesting things happen you won't like if you turn off the spigot a d eliminate immigration.

But that has nothing to do with this brunch

It's a sold out private party, gents.

There's going to be an after-party if anyone's interested in tossing on their hood and picketing the patio

Sold out! Nice. I figured I'd have to wait till after the brunch to see that it sold out. At this rate it will probably become a regular thing! The cult members plan has backfired.

[Jacuzzme]

Backfired? LMAO! A couple hundred weirdos driving up from the city for an evening means nothing. The business still has to live off of the local community, it’ll be weeks or months before they can tell if their groomathon has any impact. In that neighborhood, I’d lay odds that it’s a net negative.

[1pittsburgh]

I'd certainly take that bet. How about this proposal? If that location is still in business six months from now, you never post in this sandbox again. If it goes out of business within the next six months, I'll never post in this sandbox again. Do we have a bet, Jacuzzme?

Those resources can go wherever the people who write budgets direct them.
