...the majority of these "cancels" arent because the targets engaged in lying or attacks on Democracy. Many are because they had a political opinion that didn't express fealty to GOP's God King.../4
...or because they expressed an opinion that proved right (France didn't want to be part of the Iraq War, Dixie Chicks criticized Bush for engaging in Iraq War) - a war that the GOP NOW agrees with France and the Dixie Chicks about (And do their best to blame dems for it).../5
...so, you want cancel culture? One side, it's "cancel" because they don't worship the right politician or commit to an insane GOP policy. On the other, it's "cancel" because there are consequences for inciting insurrection, encouraging or being white supremacists/nazis,..../6
...engaging in racism, ripping infants from their breast feeding mothers, putting 1 year olds on trial (yes, they really did this) taking toddlers and young children away from their parents and locking them up. And on and on..../7
...so, yah, GOP, boo hoo. You can't lie or hurt people without consequences. And, for you, people can't have a different opinion without being "canceled."

The biggest perpetrators are always the loudest whiners.
